- Creatinine: To determine kidneys function and monitor treatment for kidney disease.
- BUN: To evaluate kidney function, monitor the effectiveness of dialysis and other treatments related to kidney disease or damage.
- Lipid profile: a group of tests that are often ordered together to determine risk of coronary heart disease. They are tests that have been shown to be good indicators of whether someone is likely to have a heart attack or stroke caused by blockage of blood vessels or hardening of the arteries (atherosclerosis).
- Total cholesterol: To screen for risk of developing heart disease
- High density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) — often called good cholesterol: To determine risk of developing heart disease.
- Low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) —often called bad cholesterol: To determine risk of developing heart disease.
- Triglycerides: To assess the risk of developing heart disease.
- Liver function tests: To detect, evaluate, and monitor liver disease or damage.
- Alanine aminotransferase; ALT: To screen for liver damage.
- Aspartate aminotransferase; AST: To detect liver damage.
- Alkaline phosphatase; ALP: To screen and monitor treatment for a liver or bone disorder.
- Uric acid: To detect high levels of uric acid, this could be a sign of the condition gout, or to monitor uric acid levels when undergoing chemotherapy or radiation treatment.
- Urine examination: To screen for metabolic and kidney disorders and for urinary tract infections
- Gamma GT: To screen for liver disease and/or alcohol abuse or to differentiate between liver and bone disease.
- Stool examination: To help diagnose certain conditions affecting the digestive tract. The stool will be checked for color, consistency, weight (volume), shape, odor, and the presence of mucus.
- Stool occult blood: To screen for hidden (occult) blood.
- Total Protein; Albumin/Globulin ratio: To determine the nutritional status or to screen for certain liver and kidney disorders.
- Albumin: To screen for a liver disorder or kidney disease or to evaluate nutritional status.
- Globulin: Identifying the types of globulins can help diagnose chronic kidney disorders.
- Electrolyte: To detect a problem with the body's fluid and electrolyte balance.
- TSH:
- To screen for and help diagnose thyroid disorders.
- To monitor treatment of hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism
- EKG: The recording of the electrical activity of the heart over time via skin electrodes. It is a noninvasive recording produced by an electrocardiographic device.
Cardiovascular
- High-sensitivity CRP: Assess risk of developing heart disease, cardiovascular disease, or other processes involving inflammation.
- Urine microalbumin: Screen for a possible kidney disorder or for early damage to the kidneys with diabetes.
Miscellaneous
- Blood ABO & Rh: To determine ABO blood group and Rh type
Hepatitis A: To diagnose an infection with hepatitis A or to evaluate the need for or response to the hepatitis A vaccine.
- Anti HAV (IgM): IgM (immunoglobulin M) is the first antibody produced by the body when it is exposed to a virus and is used for early detection of infection. IgM antibodies to HAV are used in a patient with evidence of acute hepatitis.
- Anti HAV (IgG): IgG (immunoglobulin G) antibodies develop later and remain present for many years, protecting the person against further infection by the same virus.
Hepatitis B: To diagnose and follow the course of an infection with hepatitis B or to determine if the vaccine against hepatitis B has produced the desired level of immunity.
- Hepatitis B surface antigen; HBsAg: is a protein antigen produced by HBV.
- Hepatitis B surface antibody; anti-HBs: Presence indicates previous exposure to HBV.
- Anti-hepatitis B core antigen; anti-HBc: This antibody is produced during and after an acute HBV infection and is usually found in chronic HBV. Anti-HBc testing is either specific for the IgM antibody, anti-HBc, IgM, which indicates acute infection, or measures total antibody, anti-HBC, which indicates past infection, either acute or chronic.
- Viral loading of HBV: It may be used to monitor antiviral therapy in patients with chronic HBV infections.
- Qualitative
- Quantitative
Hepatitis C: To determine if you have contracted the hepatitis C virus (HCV) and to monitor treatment of the infection.
- Anti HCV: Detect the presence of antibodies to the virus, indicating exposure to HCV. These tests cannot tell if you still have an active viral infection, only that you were exposed to the virus in the past.
- HCV RNA or Qualitative HCV tests: Identifies whether the virus is in your blood, indicating that you have an active infection with HCV.
- Viral loading of HCV or Quantitative HCV tests: Measure the number of viral RNA particles in your blood. Viral load tests are often used before and during treatment to help determine response to treatment by comparing the amount of virus before and after treatment
HIV antibody: To determine if you are infected with Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)
Hemoglobin A1C; HbA1C: Primarily to monitor the glucose control of diabetics over time. The goal of those with diabetes is to keep their blood glucose levels as close to normal as possible. This helps to minimize the complications caused by chronically elevated glucose levels, such as progressive damage to body organs like the kidneys, eyes, cardiovascular system, and nerves.
Thyroid
- Free T4: To test for hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism and to screen newborns for hypothyroidism.
- Free T3: To test for hyperthyroidism.
Cancer
- CEA:
- To help determine whether cancer is present in the body, although it is not recommended as a general population screening test
- To monitor cancer treatment, including response to therapy and recurrence
- To help in staging of cancer.
- AFP: To screen for and monitor therapy for certain cancers of the liver, testes, or ovaries.
- PSA:
- To screen asymptomatic and symptomatic men for prostate cancer
- To help determine the necessity for a biopsy of the prostate
- To monitor the effectiveness of treatment for prostate cancer
- To detect recurrence of prostate cancer.
- Ca-125: To monitor treatment for ovarian cancer or to detect recurrence
- Ca 19-9:
- To help differentiate between cancer of the pancreas and bile ducts and other conditions.
- To monitor response to pancreatic cancer treatment.
- To watch for recurrence.
