The Iodine Serum/Plasma Test measures iodine levels in blood to evaluate thyroid health, hormone production, and nutritional balance. Abnormal levels may indicate iodine deficiency, leading to hypothyroidism or goiter, or excess iodine, which can disrupt thyroid function. Doctors use this test to investigate fatigue, weight changes, or thyroid disorders and to monitor supplementation. It provides valuable insight into endocrine, metabolic, and overall health.

Specimen Type: Serum

The Iron Total and Total Iron Binding Capacity (TIBC) Test measures iron levels in blood along with the blood’s ability to transport iron. It helps diagnose iron deficiency anemia, iron overload (hemochromatosis), and monitor nutritional or chronic health conditions. Low iron or high TIBC may indicate anemia, while high iron or low TIBC can suggest overload. Doctors use this test to evaluate fatigue, weakness, or other symptoms linked to iron and metabolic health.

Specimen Type: Serum

The Iron Micronutrient Test measures blood iron levels to evaluate nutritional status and detect deficiencies or excess. Iron is essential for hemoglobin production, oxygen transport, energy metabolism, and immune function. This test helps identify anemia, iron overload, absorption issues, or dietary imbalances, supporting diagnosis and management of overall health and vital body functions.

Patient must be 18 years of age or older.

Specimen Type: Serum

The Iron Total Test measures iron levels in blood to evaluate nutritional status, red blood cell production, and overall metabolic health. Abnormal levels may indicate iron deficiency anemia, chronic blood loss, or poor absorption, while high levels may suggest hemochromatosis, liver disease, or iron overload.

Patient must be 18 years of age or older.

The Lactate Dehydrogenase (LDH) Test measures LDH enzyme levels in blood to assess tissue damage and overall health. Elevated LDH may indicate conditions such as liver disease, heart attack, anemia, infections, or certain cancers, while low levels are uncommon. Doctors use this test to help diagnose disease, monitor treatment effectiveness, and track cell damage. It provides valuable insight into metabolic activity and organ function.

Specimen Type: Serum

The Lipid Panel with Ratios Test measures seven key markers: total cholesterol, HDL, LDL, non-HDL cholesterol, triglycerides, Chol/HDL ratio, and LDL/HDL ratio. This advanced panel evaluates cardiovascular risk by assessing cholesterol balance and fat metabolism. Doctors use it to detect high cholesterol, atherosclerosis risk, and heart disease, and to monitor treatment. Often part of routine exams, it provides insight into long-term heart and metabolic health.

The Lipoprotein (a) Test measures Lp(a), a genetic form of LDL cholesterol linked to higher risk of heart disease, stroke, and atherosclerosis. Unlike standard cholesterol tests, Lp(a) levels are inherited and not easily lowered by lifestyle changes. Doctors order this test for patients with a family history of early cardiovascular disease or high cholesterol. Results help identify hidden risk, guide prevention strategies, and support heart and vascular health management.

Specimen Type: Serum

The Magnesium Serum Test measures magnesium levels in blood to evaluate electrolyte balance, nerve and muscle function, and overall metabolic health. Abnormal levels may indicate kidney disease, malnutrition, gastrointestinal disorders, or uncontrolled diabetes. Low magnesium can cause weakness, cramps, or irregular heartbeat, while high levels may signal kidney dysfunction. Doctors use this test to diagnose deficiencies, monitor therapy, or assess chronic health conditions.

Specimen Type: Serum

The Magnesium Micronutrient RBC Test measures magnesium levels within red blood cells, providing a more accurate assessment of long-term magnesium status than serum tests. Magnesium is vital for muscle and nerve function, energy production, bone strength, and heart health. This test helps detect deficiencies or imbalances from poor diet, absorption issues, or medical conditions, supporting overall wellness.

Patient must be 18 years of age or older.

Specimen Type: Other

The Magnesium RBC Test measures magnesium inside red blood cells, providing a more accurate assessment of magnesium status than serum tests. Magnesium is vital for energy production, muscle and nerve function, heart rhythm, and bone health. Low levels may cause fatigue, cramps, arrhythmias, or weakness, while high levels may signal kidney issues. Doctors order this test to detect deficiency, monitor therapy, and evaluate overall metabolic and nutritional health.

Specimen Type: Other

The Mercury Blood Test measures the level of mercury in the blood to detect exposure or poisoning. It helps evaluate potential health risks from environmental, dietary, or occupational sources. Elevated mercury can affect the nervous system, kidneys, and other organs, and results guide diagnosis and treatment.

Specimen Type: Blood

The Mercury Micronutrient Blood Test measures mercury levels in the blood to assess exposure and potential toxicity. Mercury, found in contaminated seafood, dental materials, or industrial sources, can harm the nervous system, kidneys, and immune health. This test helps detect harmful accumulation, guide treatment, and monitor health risks related to mercury exposure.

Patient must be 18 years of age or older.

Specimen Type: Blood

Specimen Type: Other, Blood, Serum

The Phosphate (as Phosphorus) Test measures phosphorus levels in blood to evaluate bone strength, energy metabolism, and kidney health. Abnormal levels may indicate kidney disease, vitamin D imbalance, parathyroid disorders, or malnutrition. Doctors order this test to investigate fatigue, muscle weakness, or bone problems and to monitor conditions like chronic kidney disease. It provides key insight into metabolic, endocrine, and bone health.

Specimen Type: Serum

The prealbumin test, also known as transthyretin (TTR) test, is a laboratory test that measures the levels of prealbumin in the blood. Prealbumin is a protein primarily produced by the liver and plays a crucial role in transporting thyroid hormones and vitamin A.

Specimen Type: Serum

The Progesterone Test measures progesterone levels in blood to evaluate ovulation, fertility, and menstrual health. It helps confirm whether ovulation has occurred, assess causes of infertility, and monitor hormone therapy or high-risk pregnancies. Doctors also use it to investigate abnormal bleeding, detect ovarian or adrenal disorders, and evaluate miscarriage risk. This test provides key insight into reproductive, hormonal, and overall endocrine health.

Specimen Type: Serum

The PSA Total Test measures prostate-specific antigen levels in blood to evaluate prostate health. Elevated PSA may indicate prostate cancer, benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), or prostatitis. Doctors use this test for early detection of prostate cancer, monitoring treatment, or assessing recurrence risk. Commonly recommended for men over 50 or those at higher risk, the PSA test supports diagnosis, prevention, and long-term prostate care.

Specimen Type: Serum

The Sed Rate Test, also called the ESR Test, measures how quickly red blood cells settle in a sample of blood. A faster rate may signal inflammation caused by infections, autoimmune diseases, arthritis, or other chronic conditions. Doctors use this test to investigate unexplained fever, joint pain, or muscle aches, and to monitor inflammatory disorders such as lupus or rheumatoid arthritis. The Sed Rate Test provides important insight into overall inflammatory activity.

Specimen Type: Blood

Abnormal levels may indicate hyperthyroidism, hypothyroidism, goiter, or pituitary disorders. Doctors use this test to evaluate symptoms like fatigue, weight changes, anxiety, or irregular heartbeat and to monitor thyroid treatment. The T3 Total Test provides essential insight into metabolism, energy regulation, and overall endocrine health.

The T3 Uptake Test estimates thyroid hormone-binding capacity by measuring how well proteins in the blood bind triiodothyronine (T3). It does not measure T3 directly but helps assess thyroid function when combined with Total T4. Abnormal results may indicate hyperthyroidism, hypothyroidism, pregnancy, or protein-binding disorders. Doctors use this test to investigate fatigue, weight changes, or irregular heartbeat and to guide thyroid treatment decisions.

Specimen Type: Serum

The T3 Free Test measures free triiodothyronine (T3), the active thyroid hormone not bound to proteins, to assess thyroid function. It helps diagnose hyperthyroidism, hypothyroidism, goiter, and pituitary disorders.
