Also Known As: Pro Time with INR Test, Prothrombin Time and International Normalized Ratio test, Prothrombin Time PT with INR Test, Prothrombin Time with INR Test, Prothrombin with INR, Protime with INR, PT Test, Activated Partial Thromboplastin Time Test, aPTT test, PTT Test
The Prothrombin with International Normalized Ratio (INR) and Partial Thromboplastin Times (PTT) test is a blood test that evaluates the clotting function of the blood. It is ordered to assess the activity of specific proteins involved in the clotting process. This test helps healthcare providers diagnose and monitor bleeding or clotting disorders and determine the appropriate treatment.

: Serum
Also Known As: ALB Test
The Albumin test is a common clinical laboratory procedure designed to measure the concentration of albumin, a crucial protein produced by the liver, in a patient's blood. Albumin serves various functions in the body, including maintaining oncotic pressure within blood vessels, transporting hormones, enzymes, and medications, and regulating fluid balance between blood and tissues.


: Serum
Also Known As: ANCA test, cANCA test, pANCA test, Serine Protease 3 test, Acticytoplasmic Test, 3-ANCA test, PR3-ANCA Test, MPO-ANCA test
The ANCA Screen with Reflex to ANCA Titer test is a specialized blood test used to detect the presence of antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA) in the bloodstream. ANCA are autoantibodies that target specific proteins found in the cytoplasm of neutrophils, a type of white blood cell. This test is a two-step process that includes an initial ANCA screen, followed by an ANCA titer test if the screen is positive.

: Serum
 The ANCA (Anti-Neutrophil Cytoplasmic Antibodies) Vasculitides test identifies the presence of autoantibodies in the blood that target proteins found in the cytoplasm of neutrophil granulocytes, a type of white blood cell. These autoantibodies are associated with certain forms of vasculitis, a group of disorders characterized by the inflammation and damage of blood vessels. The test is typically comprised of two main types: c-ANCA (cytoplasmic) and p-ANCA (perinuclear).

: Stool/Feces
The Calprotectin Stool Test is a diagnostic test that measures the levels of calprotectin, a protein found in white blood cells, in a stool sample. Calprotectin is released into the intestines in response to inflammation, particularly from neutrophils, which are a type of immune cell that plays a key role in the body’s inflammatory response. The test is used to evaluate intestinal inflammation and to help differentiate between inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and non-inflammatory conditions, such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). By detecting and quantifying calprotectin in the stool, healthcare providers can gain valuable insight into the presence and severity of inflammation within the gastrointestinal tract.


: Stool/Feces
 The Clostridium Difficile Toxin B Qualitative Real-Time PCR test is a molecular diagnostic test that utilizes polymerase chain reaction (PCR) techniques to detect the presence of toxin B gene from the Clostridium difficile bacteria in a stool sample. Real-time PCR is advantageous because it provides rapid results and can quantify the amount of bacterial DNA present, which can be useful in understanding the severity of the infection.

Also Known As: CMV Test, CMV Antibodies Test, CMV IgG IgM Test, Cytomegalovirus Test, Cytomegalovirus IgG IgM Test
The Cytomegalovirus Antibodies IgG IgM test is a blood test that detects and measures the presence of two types of antibodies in the blood: Immunoglobulin G (IgG) and Immunoglobulin M (IgM) against cytomegalovirus (CMV). CMV is a common virus belonging to the herpesvirus family. This test is used to determine whether a person has been exposed to CMV and to assess the immune response to the virus.

: Serum
Also Known As: CMV Test, CMV Antibodies Test, CMV IgG Test, Cytomegalovirus Test, Cytomegalovirus IgG Test
The Cytomegalovirus (CMV) IgG Antibody test is a serological assay designed to detect the presence of IgG antibodies specific to the cytomegalovirus in a patient's blood. CMV is a common virus belonging to the herpesvirus family, and this test aids in assessing a patient's immune response to previous CMV exposure or infection.

: Serum
 The Cytomegalovirus (CMV) IgM Antibody test is a blood test that detects the presence of IgM antibodies specific to CMV in the blood. CMV is a common virus related to the herpes virus group, which once acquired, remains dormant in the body and can reactivate. Most individuals exposed to CMV may experience mild symptoms or no symptoms at all, but the virus can be severe in immunocompromised individuals or if transmitted to a fetus during pregnancy.

: Stool/Feces
 The Qualitative Lactoferrin Stool test is a diagnostic tool that examines a stool sample for the presence of lactoferrin, an iron-binding protein found predominantly in white blood cells called neutrophils. Elevated levels of lactoferrin in the stool can indicate the presence of inflammation in the intestines.

: Stool/Feces

: Stool/Feces

: Serum
 The Saccharomyces Cerevisiae IgA Antibodies test, often referred to as the ASCA (Anti-Saccharomyces Cerevisiae Antibodies) test, measures the concentration of IgA antibodies directed against the Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast in the blood. Saccharomyces cerevisiae is a type of yeast used in baking and brewing.

Did you know that 2.4 million people visit their doctors for IBS treatment every year in the United States? 

To receive an IBS diagnosis, your medical professional will review the symptoms you've listed, as well as your family history, and complete a physical exam. In order to accurately diagnose you with this disease, doctors will also often order a blood test to rule out other potential health problems. 

If you've had pain related to your bowel movements, pain in your abdomen, or you've noticed changes in your bowel movements, talking to your doctor about your symptoms is important to get your health back on track. If you're looking to learn more about the blood tests that your doctor ordered for you or if you're looking to take your health into your own hands and order blood tests for yourself, we've come up with a complete guide to give you a better understanding of an IBS diagnosis.
