Individual tests

Hepatitis C is usually spread by contact with blood from an infected person. Most people who get hepatitis C will have a chronic infection. In most cases, medicine can cure hepatitis C. Without treatment, chronic hepatitis C may lead to cirrhosis or liver cancer. This test is used to screen for hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection by detecting HCV antibodies. If the result is positive, the patient must take an HCV ARN test next.
The hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a major cause of liver inflammation. The quantitative HCV RNA PCR test indicates the number of viral copies of HCV in your blood. This test helps establish a diagnosis and monitors the amount of HCV in the bloodstream during treatment. It's also used to assess how well the body is responding to treatment and if any changes are necessary.

The hepatitis E virus (HEV) is one of the major etiologic agents of hepatitis worldwide. HEV-antibodies are proteins your immune system produces to fight against HEV following infection. The titer of IgM anti-HEV declines rapidly during early convalescence. IgG anti-HEV persists for a longer timeframe.

T3 is one of two major hormones made by your thyroid, a small gland located near the throat. It helps regulate your energy use, weight, body temperature, muscle strength, and nervous system. This test helps diagnose, assess and monitor thyroid disorders, such as an overactive or underactive thyroid gland and aids diagnoses of pituitary gland disorders.
Thyroxine (T4) is a thyroid hormone affecting your weight, heart, body temperature, and muscle strength. A T4 test can check how well your thyroid is working. It also helps diagnose and monitor thyroid disease and conditions like an underactive or overactive thyroid.
Thyroglobulin is a thyroid protein. This test is mostly used to monitor, but not to diagnose, patients with well-differentiated thyroid cancers. The measurement of thyroglobulin after thyroidectomy and ablation of the thyroid gland is useful for determining metastasis. It may also help diagnose hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism, which are common non-cancer thyroid conditions.
Thyroglobulin is a protein that your thyroid produces. Antithyroglobulin antibodies can indicate thyroid gland damage caused by the immune system. They may be measured in suspected cases of thyroid inflammation. Measuring thyroglobulin antibody levels after thyroid cancer treatment can help your provider monitor recurrence.
Antibodies are immune system proteins that fight foreign substances like viruses and bacteria. Sometimes antibodies attack the body's cells, tissues, and organs by mistake, known as an autoimmune response. When thyroid antibodies attack healthy thyroid cells, it can lead to Hashimoto's or autoimmune thyroiditis. This test measures the level of thyroid antibodies in your blood.

TSH stands for thyroid stimulating hormone. The thyroid is a small gland in the front of your neck, controlled by the pituitary gland. The pituitary gland makes TSH to control the production of thyroid hormones. When the thyroid hormone levels in your blood are too low, your pituitary gland produces larger amounts of TSH to tell your thyroid to work harder.
The TRAb or TSH receptor antibody measures the ability of antibodies to inhibit TSH binding to their receptor. TSH is a pituitary gland hormone that stimulates the thyroid hormone's release into the blood. Measurement of TRAb is used to diagnose and manage Graves' disease, neonatal hypothyroidism, and postpartum thyroid dysfunction.
TSIs are antibodies that tell the thyroid gland to release excess amounts of thyroid hormone into the blood. High levels of TSI in the blood can indicate Graves’ disease. This autoimmune disease affects the thyroid gland and causes hyperthyroidism (an excess of thyroid hormone leading to several abnormal metabolisms in your body).
