Total Cholesterol

The Total Cholesterol test measures the total amount of cholesterol in the blood, including both LDL (bad) and HDL (good) cholesterol. It is usually done as part of a lipid panel to assess the risk of developing cardiovascular disease.

Total Protein

Total Protein test is a laboratory test that measures the total amount of protein in the blood. The test is often ordered as part of a comprehensive metabolic panel and can be used to help diagnose various medical conditions.

Transferrin

Transferrin is a blood test that measures the level of transferrin in the blood. Transferrin is a protein that carries iron in the blood and is made by the liver. This test is used to evaluate iron status and to help diagnose and monitor conditions such as iron deficiency anemia and hemochromatosis.

Transferrin Saturation Index

The transferrin saturation index (TSI) is calculated by dividing the serum iron level by the total iron binding capacity (TIBC) and multiplying by 100.

Triglycerides (TGL)

Measures the level of triglycerides, a type of fat, in the blood. It is often ordered as part of a lipid panel to assess a person's risk of cardiovascular disease.

Troponin - I

Troponin-I test is a blood test used to measure the level of troponin-I protein in the blood. It is often used to help diagnose heart attacks or other heart-related conditions.

Troponin - T

The troponin-T test is a blood test used to measure the levels of troponin T in the blood. Troponin T is a protein found in heart muscle cells, and an increase in its levels in the blood is a sign of damage to the heart muscle, such as during a heart attack.

Urea

The urea test measures the amount of urea nitrogen in the blood, which reflects how well the kidneys are functioning. It can also be used to evaluate liver function and protein intake.

Urea Clearance

Urea clearance test is a measure of the amount of blood cleared of urea by the kidneys per unit of time.

Uric Acid

Uric Acid test is a blood test that measures the amount of uric acid in the blood. Uric acid is a waste product formed from the breakdown of purines, which are substances found in many foods and in the body's tissues. High levels of uric acid in the blood can lead to conditions such as gout and kidney stones.

Catecholamine (Urine)

The Catecholamine Urine test is a laboratory test that measures the levels of the hormones adrenaline, noradrenaline, and dopamine in the urine.

Catecholamine (Plasma)

Catecholamine (Plasma) test measures the levels of norepinephrine, epinephrine, and dopamine in the blood.

Valproic Acid

The valproic acid test is a blood test used to measure the level of valproic acid in the blood.

VMA (Vanilyl Mandelic Acid)

The VMA (Vanillylmandelic Acid) test is a urine test used to detect the presence of certain hormones called catecholamines, which are produced by the adrenal gland and the nervous system. The test measures the level of VMA, a breakdown product of catecholamines, in the urine. High levels of VMA may indicate certain conditions such as pheochromocytoma or neuroblastoma.

Zinc

A zinc test is a laboratory test used to measure the level of zinc in the blood.

Renin

The renin test measures the level of renin in the blood.

Alpha - Thalassaemia Gene MLPA

The alpha-thalassemia gene MLPA test is a genetic test that detects the presence of deletions or duplications in the alpha-globin gene cluster on chromosome 16, which can lead to alpha-thalassemia.

Alpha - Thalassaemia Gene SEQ

The Alpha-Thalassaemia Gene Sequencing (SEQ) test is a genetic test that analyzes the DNA sequence of the alpha-globin gene to identify mutations associated with alpha-thalassaemia.

Bone Tissue

Hard tissue that forms the skeletal system of vertebrates, composed of cells, collagen fibers, and mineral deposits such as calcium and phosphate.

Bowel (Small & Large Intestine)

tissues or specimens obtained from the small and/or large intestine, which are examined for diagnostic purposes such as detecting infections, inflammation, tumors, or other abnormalities.

Breast (Whole)

Breast (Whole) - Imaging or tissue analysis of the entire breast, typically performed for screening or diagnostic purposes to detect any abnormalities or potential cancerous growths.

Gastrectomy

Gastrectomy is a surgical procedure that involves removing all or part of the stomach.

Masectomy

Mastectomy is a surgical procedure to remove one or both breasts, usually to treat breast cancer.

Ovarian

Ovarian tissue can be examined for various reasons such as diagnosing ovarian cancer or other conditions, assessing fertility, and studying the effects of certain treatments. Biopsy and surgical excision are the most common procedures for obtaining ovarian tissue samples. The samples can then be examined through various laboratory tests, including histopathology, immunohistochemistry, and genetic testing.

Prostate (Whole)

issue sample obtained by biopsy or removed by surgery for pathological examination.

Vulvectomy

Vulvectomy is a surgical procedure in which part or all of the vulva (external female genitalia) is removed.

Whipples

Whipple's procedure is a surgical operation used to treat pancreatic cancer, ampullary cancer, and other disorders of the pancreas, bile duct and small intestine. The procedure involves the removal of the head of the pancreas, the first part of the small intestine (duodenum), the gallbladder, and the bile duct. The remaining organs are then reconnected to allow for normal digestion.

Bladder Chips

Bladder chips are 3D in vitro models of human bladder tissue that can be used for drug discovery and toxicity testing. They are created by culturing bladder cells on a scaffold in a controlled environment, allowing them to form a functional model of the bladder that can mimic the behavior of real bladder tissue

Brain Tumor

A brain tumor is an abnormal growth of cells within the brain or surrounding tissues. It can be benign (non-cancerous) or malignant (cancerous) and can cause a range of symptoms depending on its size, location, and type.

Breast Lump/ Tru Cut Biopsy

Breast lump/ Tru-Cut biopsy is a medical procedure that involves the removal of a small piece of breast tissue for examination under a microscope to determine whether the lump is benign or cancerous.

Aspirates, Body fluid, Sputum, Urine

Aspirates: Material removed from a specific site or lesion by suction through a needle or tube. Body fluid: Any fluid that is normally found within the body cavities, such as cerebrospinal fluid, pleural fluid, pericardial fluid, or ascitic fluid. Sputum: Mucous secretion from the lungs, bronchi, and trachea that is coughed up and spat out. Urine: Liquid waste product produced by the kidneys and excreted through the urinary system.

Pap Smear Submitted slides

Pap smear: A screening test for cervical cancer that involves collecting cells from the cervix and examining them under a microscope to detect abnormal or cancerous cells. Submitted slides: The glass slides containing the collected cells from the cervix, which are sent to a laboratory for examination.

Slides for second Opinion

Slides for second opinion: Glass slides containing biological samples, such as tissue, blood, or fluid, that are sent to another medical professional or laboratory for an additional evaluation and interpretation of results

FNAC Fluid (Submitted samples)

FNAC Fluid (Submitted samples): Fluid samples obtained through Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology (FNAC), which involves the use of a thin needle to extract fluid from a body tissue or organ for examination under a microscope. The samples are submitted to the laboratory for further analysis and diagnosis.

Pap Smear (Liquid-Based Cytology)

Screening test for cervical cancer using a liquid-based method to collect cells from the cervix and examine them under a microscope for abnormalities.
