Individual tests

This test helps investigate problems related to bone metabolism or parathyroid function and possible vitamin D deficiency or malabsorption before commencing specific bone treatment and to monitor patients taking vitamin D.
Addis sediment is a semi-urine test used to measure and calculate indicators such as red blood cells, platelets, white blood cells, and urinary casts. This test is important in diagnosing and following up kidney diseases, especially nephrotic syndrome.
AFP is a type of tumor marker produced by cancer cells or normal cells in response to cancer. High levels of AFP can indicate cancer of the liver, ovaries, or testicles. However, other non-cancerous conditions can also increase AFP levels, so this test alone can't fully diagnose cancer.
This test determines whether or not you have adequate apo A-I levels, diagnosing specific apo A deficiency and helping assess your risk of developing coronary heart disease.
Apolipoprotein B (or Apo B, for short) is a protein that helps carry fat and cholesterol through your body. Your body needs fat and cholesterol to produce hormones and keep cells healthy. As they don't dissolve well in the blood, they may cause plaque buildup in your blood vessels, possibly leading to heart disease.
Apolipoprotein B/Apolipoprotein A-1 ratio is an index reflecting the balance between atherogenic lipoprotein particles and anti-atherogenic lipoprotein particles. When this balance is disrupted, atherosclerosis progresses, leading to stroke. Additionally, the ApoB/ApoA-1 ratio is also a strong predictor of cardiovascular events such as myocardial infarction, angina, and heart failure, compared to conventional lipid tests like total cholesterol, triglycerides, LDL-cholesterol, and HDL-cholesterol.
The aPTT is one of several blood coagulation tests. It measures how long it takes your blood to form a clot. When one of your blood vessels is damaged, proteins called clotting factors come together to form clots and quickly stop the bleeding. The aPTT test helps assess how well those clotting factors work, often in conjunction with other tests that monitor clotting factors.
A blood smear is a sample spread on a glass slide and treated with a special stain. Previously, all blood smears were examined under a microscope by laboratory professionals. Now automated digital systems can help examine blood smears. A blood smear helps diagnose and monitor conditions such as blood disorders, sudden kidney failure, and certain cancer treatments.
This test helps monitor certain cancers during and after treatment and checks for recurrence. It can identify early signs of ovarian cancer in high-risk patients. Some non-cancerous conditions can increase the level of this protein, such as menstruation and uterine fibroids. Certain cancers may also cause an increased level of CA 125, including ovarian, endometrial, peritoneal, and fallopian tube cancers.
