SAMPLE TYPE: Blood  GENDER: Both  AGE GROUP: All ages (commonly adults & pregnant women)

Test Name: AFP (Alpha-Fetoprotein)

About:
The AFP test measures Alpha-Fetoprotein, a protein produced mainly by the liver and yolk sac in a developing fetus. In adults, AFP levels can rise due to liver diseases or certain cancers. It is also used in pregnancy screening.

Test Overview:
AFP levels are used as a tumor marker for liver cancer and germ cell tumors, and as part of prenatal screening to assess fetal development or detect abnormalities.

Reports Delivery:
Usually available within 1 day.

Is Fasting Required:
No

Test Name: Albumin

About:
The Albumin test measures the level of albumin, the main protein made by the liver. It plays a vital role in maintaining fluid balance, transporting hormones, vitamins, and enzymes, and reflecting overall liver and kidney health.

Test Overview:
Low albumin levels can indicate liver disease, kidney issues, malnutrition, or chronic inflammation. This test is commonly included in liver and kidney function evaluations.

Reports Delivery:
Usually available within a few hours to 1 day.

Is Fasting Required:
No

SAMPLE TYPE: Blood  GENDER: Both  AGE GROUP: All ages

Test Name: aPTT (Activated Partial Thromboplastin Time)

About:
The aPTT test measures how long it takes your blood to form a clot. It primarily evaluates the intrinsic and common coagulation pathways, helping to detect bleeding disorders or to monitor patients on certain blood-thinning medications.

Test Overview:
aPTT helps doctors assess the functionality of different clotting factors in your blood. It can detect deficiencies or abnormalities in these factors and is often used before surgery or when there are symptoms of abnormal bleeding.

Reports Delivery:
Usually available within a few hours to 1 day.

Fasting Required:
No, fasting is not required for the aPTT test.

SAMPLE TYPE: Blood  GENDER: Both  AGE GROUP: All ages

Test Name: Bilirubin Direct

About:
The Bilirubin Direct test measures the level of direct (conjugated) bilirubin in the blood. This form of bilirubin is processed by the liver and is water-soluble. Elevated levels usually point toward liver or bile duct-related problems.

Test Overview:
Direct bilirubin helps identify whether jaundice or elevated bilirubin is due to issues in liver processing or bile flow obstruction. It is often tested along with Total and Indirect Bilirubin.

Reports Delivery:
Usually available within a few hours to 1 day.

Is Fasting Required:
No

SAMPLE TYPE: Blood  GENDER: Female  AGE GROUP: All ages (mainly adults)

Test Name: CA-125

About:
The CA-125 test measures the level of Cancer Antigen-125, a protein that is often elevated in ovarian cancer and certain other conditions. It is primarily used as a tumor marker in women.

Test Overview:
CA-125 is produced by cells in the ovaries and other tissues. High levels may indicate ovarian cancer, but can also rise due to benign conditions such as endometriosis, fibroids, or pelvic inflammation.

Reports Delivery:
Usually available within 1 day.

Is Fasting Required:
No

SAMPLE TYPE: Blood  GENDER: Both  AGE GROUP: All ages

Test Name: CBC (Complete Blood Count)

About:
The CBC test measures various components of your blood, including red blood cells, white blood cells, hemoglobin, hematocrit, and platelets. It helps assess overall health and detect a wide range of conditions.

Test Overview:
This test is one of the most commonly performed diagnostic tests. It helps evaluate infections, anemia, immunity, clotting capacity, and general health status.

Reports Delivery:
Usually available within a few hours.

Is Fasting Required:
No

SAMPLE TYPE: Blood  GENDER: Both  AGE GROUP: All ages (adults preferred)

Test Name: CEA (Carcinoembryonic Antigen)

About:
The CEA test measures the level of Carcinoembryonic Antigen, a protein that may be elevated in certain cancers, especially colorectal cancer. It is mainly used as a tumor marker for diagnosis, monitoring, and follow-up.

Test Overview:
CEA is normally present at very low levels. Increased levels can indicate cancer, inflammation, or smoking-related changes. It is commonly used to monitor treatment response and detect cancer recurrence.

Reports Delivery:
Usually available within 1 day.

Is Fasting Required:
No

SAMPLE TYPE: Blood  GENDER: Both  AGE GROUP: All ages

Test Name: Creatinine

About:
The Creatinine test measures the level of creatinine in your blood. Creatinine is a waste product formed from normal muscle activity and is filtered out by the kidneys. This test is one of the most important markers of kidney function.

Test Overview:
High levels of creatinine indicate reduced kidney filtration capacity, making this test essential in diagnosing and monitoring kidney diseases.

Reports Delivery:
Usually available within a few hours to 1 day.

Is Fasting Required:
No

SAMPLE TYPE: Blood  GENDER: Both  AGE GROUP: All ages

Test Name: CRP (C-Reactive Protein)

About:
The CRP test measures the level of C-Reactive Protein in your blood. CRP is produced by the liver in response to inflammation, infection, or tissue injury. High levels indicate active inflammation in the body.

Test Overview:
CRP is a sensitive marker used to detect bacterial infections, inflammatory conditions, autoimmune disorders, and to monitor response to treatment.

Reports Delivery:
Usually available within a few hours to 1 day.

Is Fasting Required:
No
