The D-Dimer Quantitative test measures the level of D-dimer, a protein fragment produced when a blood clot dissolves in the body. It is a crucial diagnostic tool used to detect abnormal clotting activity, which may indicate conditions such as deep vein thrombosis (DVT), pulmonary embolism (PE), or disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC). Elevated D-dimer levels suggest recent or ongoing clot formation and breakdown. This test helps clinicians rule out thrombotic disorders in patients with suspected clotting events. It is usually performed using blood plasma, providing accurate numerical results that assist in timely diagnosis and treatment decisions.
