c-ANCA by ELISA

The c-ANCA (cytoplasmic Anti-Neutrophil Cytoplasmic Antibody) by ELISA test is a sensitive immunoassay used to detect autoantibodies directed against proteinase-3 (PR3) in the cytoplasm of neutrophils. It is primarily employed in the diagnosis and monitoring of granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA/Wegener's granulomatosis), an autoimmune vasculitis affecting small to medium-sized blood vessels. The ELISA technique provides quantitative results, allowing clinicians to assess antibody levels over time. Elevated c-ANCA titers correlate with disease activity, aiding in early detection, therapeutic monitoring, and differentiation from other vasculitides or autoimmune disorders. The test is highly specific and complements clinical evaluation and imaging studies.Reports On : With 12 HoursSample Type : BloodFasting : Not Required Click Here To Book A Test

Calcium/Creatinine Ratio Urine Spot

The Calcium/Creatinine Ratio (Urine Spot) test measures the amount of calcium excreted in a single urine sample relative to creatinine. It helps evaluate calcium metabolism and kidney function, serving as a screening tool for conditions such as hypercalciuria, kidney stones, hyperparathyroidism, vitamin D disorders, and other metabolic abnormalities. By comparing calcium to creatinine, the test accounts for variations in urine concentration. It is a convenient, non-invasive alternative to 24-hour urine collection, providing quick insights into abnormal calcium excretion that may require further diagnostic evaluation or dietary and medical interventions.Reports On : With 2 HoursSample Type : UrineFasting : Not Required Click Here To Book A Test

Calcium Total

The Calcium Total test measures the total amount of calcium in your blood, including both free (ionized) calcium and calcium bound to proteins. Calcium is an essential mineral critical for bone and teeth health, muscle function, nerve signaling, blood clotting, and hormonal regulation. Abnormal levels may indicate various conditions: high calcium (hypercalcemia) can be due to hyperparathyroidism, cancer, or excessive vitamin D intake, while low calcium (hypocalcemia) may result from kidney disease, vitamin D deficiency, hypoparathyroidism, or malnutrition. This test helps in monitoring metabolic disorders, bone diseases, and electrolyte imbalances. Proper interpretation usually considers albumin levels.Reports On : With 90 minuteSample Type : BloodFasting : Not Required Click Here To Book A Test
