The Sodium Test measures sodium levels in the blood, an electrolyte essential for fluid balance, nerve function, and muscle activity. Abnormal sodium may indicate dehydration, kidney disease, adrenal disorders, or heart failure. Doctors use this test to investigate symptoms like confusion, weakness, or swelling and to monitor patients with chronic illnesses, diuretic use, or intravenous therapy, ensuring proper electrolyte and metabolic health.
The Electrolyte Panel Test measures sodium, potassium, chloride, and carbon dioxide in blood to evaluate fluid balance, kidney function, and acid-base status. Abnormal results may indicate dehydration, kidney disease, adrenal disorders, or respiratory issues. Doctors use this test to investigate symptoms such as weakness, confusion, or irregular heartbeat. Results provide essential insight into electrolyte balance, hydration, and overall metabolic and organ health.
The Comprehensive Metabolic Panel (CMP) Test measures 21 markers to assess metabolic health, liver and kidney function, and electrolyte balance. It includes glucose, calcium, sodium, potassium, chloride, CO2, albumin, globulin, A/G ratio, total protein, bilirubin, ALP, AST, ALT, BUN, creatinine, BUN/creatinine ratio, and eGFR. The CMP helps detect diabetes, liver or kidney disease, and supports routine screening and chronic condition monitoring.
The Aldosterone Test measures levels of aldosterone, a hormone produced by the adrenal glands that helps regulate blood pressure, sodium, and potassium balance. Abnormal levels may indicate primary aldosteronism, adrenal tumors, kidney disease, or secondary hypertension. Doctors use this blood test to investigate high blood pressure, electrolyte imbalances, or suspected adrenal disorders, helping guide diagnosis, treatment, and long-term patient management.
The Aldosterone and Plasma Renin Activity Ratio Test measures levels of aldosterone and renin to assess adrenal and kidney function. An elevated ratio may indicate primary aldosteronism, a common cause of secondary hypertension. Doctors use this test to evaluate patients with high blood pressure, low potassium, or suspected adrenal disorders. Results help diagnose conditions like Conn’s syndrome, guide treatment, and reduce cardiovascular risks from uncontrolled hypertension.
The Comprehensive Metabolic Panel (CMP) Plasma Test measures 21 markers of kidney, liver, and metabolic health, including electrolytes, glucose, calcium, proteins, and enzymes. Doctors order this test to evaluate conditions like diabetes, liver disease, and kidney disorders or to monitor treatment. Results provide critical insight into organ function, electrolyte balance, and overall metabolic status, guiding diagnosis, management, and preventive health care.
The StoneRisk® Panel evaluates urinary and serum biomarkers linked to kidney stone formation, including calcium, oxalate, uric acid, citrate, and other metabolic factors. This test provides a comprehensive assessment of urinary chemistry to identify contributors to nephrolithiasis. Results help determine stone type risk, guide prevention strategies, and support long-term kidney health management.
The Basic Metabolic Panel (BMP) Test measures eight markers, including glucose, calcium, sodium, potassium, chloride, carbon dioxide, BUN, and creatinine, to evaluate kidney function, blood sugar, and electrolyte balance. Doctors use this panel to detect diabetes, dehydration, and kidney disease, or to monitor treatment. It is commonly ordered in routine exams, emergency care, or pre-surgical testing to assess overall metabolic and organ health.
The Plasma Renin Activity Test evaluates how much renin the kidneys release, providing insight into blood pressure control and fluid regulation. Abnormal activity may suggest hypertension, adrenal gland dysfunction, or kidney disease. This test supports assessment of aldosterone-renin ratio, secondary hypertension, and systemic conditions that impact cardiovascular and renal health.
The Comprehensive Organic Acids Quantitative Urine Test analyzes a broad spectrum of metabolites—organic acids—in urine to assess metabolic pathway function. By quantifying markers of detoxification, mitochondrial energy, and microbial metabolism, this test can help detect inborn errors, mitochondrial dysfunction, or dysbiosis.
The Osmolality Blood Test measures the concentration of dissolved particles such as electrolytes, glucose, and urea in blood. It helps evaluate hydration status, kidney function, and electrolyte balance. Doctors use this test to investigate hyponatremia, dehydration, poisoning, or metabolic disorders. Abnormal levels may indicate impaired kidney regulation, diabetes insipidus, or toxin exposure, guiding diagnosis, treatment, and monitoring therapy effectiveness.
The Aldosterone 24 Hour Urine Test evaluates adrenal hormone output across 24 hours, offering information about blood pressure regulation, fluid balance, and electrolyte control. Elevated or low levels may suggest primary aldosteronism, adrenal tumors, or secondary hypertension. This test supports assessment of kidney function, cardiovascular health, and endocrine disorders linked to aldosterone imbalance.
The Basic Metabolic Panel Plasma Test measures key blood chemistries including glucose, calcium, sodium, potassium, chloride, carbon dioxide, blood urea nitrogen, and creatinine. These markers provide insight into kidney function, electrolyte balance, and metabolic health. Clinicians often use the results to assess conditions such as dehydration, renal disease, or metabolic disorders and to monitor overall systemic health.
