Test by Body Systems

The Iron and Total Iron Binding Capacity (TIBC) test evaluates the levels of iron and the capacity of proteins to bind iron in the blood. It provides information about iron metabolism and helps assess iron deficiency or iron overload conditions.

Specimen Type: Serum

Also Known As: Serum Iron Test, Total Iron Binding Capacity Test, TIBC Test, UIBC Test

The Lipid Panel with Ratios Test measures total cholesterol, HDL, LDL, non-HDL cholesterol, and triglycerides, along with key ratios (Chol/HDL and LDL/HDL). It helps evaluate cardiovascular risk, monitor lipid balance, and guide prevention or treatment of heart disease.

Also Known As: Lipid Profile Test, Cholesterol Panel Test, Lipid Blood Test

The Lipoprotein (a) Test measures the level of lipoprotein (a), a type of LDL cholesterol particle linked to an increased risk of cardiovascular disease. High levels may be inherited and help guide heart disease risk assessment and prevention strategies.

Specimen Type: Serum

Also Known As: Lipoprotein A Test, Lpa Test, Lp(a) Test

The Lp-PLA2 (Lipoprotein-Associated Phospholipase A2) Activity test is a blood test designed to measure the activity of the Lp-PLA2 enzyme in the bloodstream. This enzyme is primarily associated with inflammation and the development of atherosclerosis, a condition characterized by the buildup of plaque in the arteries. Measuring Lp-PLA2 activity can provide valuable information about cardiovascular health and the risk of heart disease.

Specimen Type: Serum

Also Known As: LpPLA2 Test, Ps-PLA2 Activity Test, Platelet-activating Factor Acetylhydrolase Test, PAF-AH Test, PLAC Test, Lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 Test

The Lupus Anticoagulant Evaluation test is used to screen for lupus anticoagulants, also known as antibodies with phospholipid-protein specificity.

Specimen Type: Plasma-Unspecified Vial Pour

Also Known As: LA Test, LAC Test, Lupus Anticoagulant Panel Test, Lupus Inhibitor Test, LA Sensitive PTT Test, PTT-LA Test,

The Methylenetetrahydrofolate Reductase (MTHFR) DNA Mutation Analysis Test detects specific genetic mutations in the MTHFR gene that affect folate metabolism and homocysteine levels. It helps assess risk for conditions linked to impaired methylation, such as cardiovascular disease, blood clotting disorders, and certain pregnancy complications.

Specimen Type: Blood

Also Known As: MTHFR Factor Test, MTHFR Mutation Test, MTHFR Gene Mutation Test, Methylenetetrahydrofolate Reductase Gene Test, MTHFR Disease Test

 The Myeloperoxidase Antibody test, also known as MPO Antibody test, is a blood test that measures the presence and levels of myeloperoxidase antibodies in the bloodstream. Myeloperoxidase (MPO) is an enzyme found in white blood cells called neutrophils, and it plays a crucial role in the immune system's response to infections. The test is used to detect and evaluate autoimmune conditions known as ANCA-associated vasculitis, which can cause inflammation and damage to blood vessels and various organs.

Specimen Type: Serum

 The Myoglobin test is a laboratory test that measures the levels of myoglobin in the blood. Myoglobin is a small, oxygen-binding protein found primarily in heart and skeletal muscles. When muscle damage occurs, myoglobin is released into the bloodstream. Since myoglobin is filtered out of the blood by the kidneys, it can also appear in the urine, especially in high amounts.

Specimen Type: Serum

The N-terminal proBNP (NT-proBNP) test is a crucial diagnostic tool used to measure the levels of N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide in the blood. NT-proBNP is released by the heart in response to increased pressure and stretching of the heart muscle. This test plays a significant role in assessing cardiac health and diagnosing various heart-related conditions.

Specimen Type: Plasma-Unspecified Vial Pour

Also Known As: Brain Natriuretic Peptide Test, proBNP test,

The Omega 3 and 6 Fatty Acids test (OmegaCheck®) is a test that measures the levels of specific fatty acids in the blood. It provides information about the balance between omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, which are essential nutrients with important roles in various physiological processes.

Also Known As: OmegaCheck® Test

The Prothrombin Time (PT) with INR Test measures how long it takes blood to clot and standardizes results with the International Normalized Ratio (INR). It helps assess clotting function, monitor blood-thinning therapy, and detect bleeding or clotting disorders.

Specimen Type: Blood

Also Known As: PT with INR Test

The QuestAssureD™ Vitamin D Test measures total 25-hydroxyvitamin D, including D2 and D3, to assess vitamin D status. It helps evaluate bone health, calcium absorption, and risk for deficiencies or excess, guiding nutrition and treatment decisions.

Specimen Type: Serum

Also Known As: Ergocalciferol Test, Vitamin D2 Test, Cholecalciferol Test, Vitamin D3 Test, Calcidiol Test, 25-hydroxyvitamin D Test, Calcifidiol Test, 25-hydroxy-vitamin D Test, Vitamin D Total Test

The Sed Rate (Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate) test, also known as the ESR test, measures the rate at which red blood cells settle to the bottom of a tube over a certain period of time. It is a non-specific test that provides information about the presence of inflammation in the body.

Specimen Type: Blood

Also Known As: Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate Test, ESR Test, Sedimentation Rate Test, Westergren Sedimentation Rate Test

Specimen Type: Varied

The TSH (Thyroid Stimulating Hormone) test measures TSH levels, a pituitary hormone that regulates thyroid function. It helps diagnose and monitor hypothyroidism, hyperthyroidism, and other thyroid disorders. Abnormal levels may indicate hormone imbalances and guide treatment decisions.

Specimen Type: Serum

Also Known As: Thyroid Stimulating Hormone Test, Thyrotropin Test

Specimen Type: Serum
