Which term is used to describe urine that may precipitate or be clotted?

The term used to describe urine that may precipitate or be clotted is "milky." This type of urine often suggests the presence of an increased number of cells, such as white blood cells or bacteria, or it may indicate the presence of lipids, which can lead to a milky appearance. The term is typically associated with conditions that cause abnormal components in the urine, resulting in cloudiness that can settle or form clots upon standing.

A clear urine sample, on the other hand, indicates normal circumstances where no significant particulate matter is present. Turbid urine is often used to describe cloudy urine but does not specifically indicate that it may precipitate or be clotted. Amorphous deposits refer to substances that have no specific shape and may settle in the urine but do not necessarily imply a milky appearance or clotting. Thus, "milky" is the most precise term for urine that is likely to precipitate or become clotted.
