For centuries physicians have been using urine as one of the non-invasive means for assessing diseases. Haematuria is a frequently encountered abnormality in clinical practice. Haematuria may have either a glomerular or a non-glomerular origin. The morphological study of urinary red cells by Phase-Contrast Microscopy (PCM) is a useful diagnostic marker for glomerular bleeding, if correctly interpreted and used. Today, urinalysis and in particular identification of red cells morphology by Phase-Contrast Microscopy has been a widely accepted technique for determining the site of haematuria. A short review on haematuria and Phase-Contrast Microscopy are presented here for updating knowledge and academic interest. Key words: Phase-contrast microscope; Haematuria; Dysmorphic red cell.
