French term

ECBU

French to English Medical Medical (general) gynecology
What does the term "ECBU" stand for in the context of a gynecological examination? From the context I've seen it in, I think it means "urinalysis," but an exact translation would do. The language is French, from the Congo, and it is included in a list of a series of tests: PV, ECBU, MFS, and either VS or VJ. Thank you!
