A urinalysis is a test of your urine. A urinalysis is used to detect and manage a wide range of disorders, such as urinary tract infections, kidney disease and diabetes. A urinalysis involves checking the appearance, concentration and content of urine.
ALPHA FETOPROTEIN TUMOUR - This is a blood test to look for alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) in your blood. AFP is normally made by a fetus's liver and yolk sac. It's the main protein during the first three months of development. AFP greatly decreases by age 1 and should only be found in adults in very low levels. AFP is one of several tumour markers. Tumour markers are molecules in the blood that are higher when a person has certain cancers. AFP is found mainly in liver cancer and non seminomatous germ cell tumours, which are rare.
Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) is a protein found in many types of cells but associated with tumours and the developing fetus.CEA is tested in blood. Benign conditions that can increase CEA include smoking, infection, inflammatory bowel disease, pancreatitis, cirrhosis of the liver, and some benign tumours (in the same organs which have cancers with increased CEA). Benign disease does not usually cause a CEA increase over 10 ng/ml.The main use of CEA is as a tumour marker, especially with intestinal cancer. The most common cancers that elevate CEA are in the colon and rectum. Others: cancer of the pancreas, stomach, breast, lung, and certain types of thyroid and ovarian cancer.
ESR is a blood test that measures how quickly red blood cells settle at the bottom of a test tube over an hour. It helps detect inflammation in the body, which may be caused by infections, autoimmune diseases, or other medical conditions.
Hemoglobin is a protein molecule in red blood cells that carries oxygen from the lungs to the body’s tissues and returns carbon dioxide from the tissues back to the lungs.
Mean cell hemoglobin (MCH) is the average amount of hemoglobin in each red blood cell. It is a crucial parameter in evaluating the amount of hemoglobin within red blood cells, which affects their oxygen-carrying capacity.
Mean cell volume (MCV) is the average volume of red blood cells in a blood sample. It is a crucial indicator used to classify different types of anemia based on the size of red blood cells.
Mean Corpuscular Hemoglobin Mean Corpuscular Hemoglobin Concentration refers to the average concentration of hemoglobin in red blood cells.
It helps look for changes in the size & shape of blood cells and platelets, which could be a sign of a blood disorder or blood cancer. It checks the change in the total number & count of blood cells & platelets, which usually disrupts due to bone marrow problems.
Platelets, or thrombocytes, are small cell fragments in the blood that are essential for blood clotting and wound healing. They are produced in the bone marrow and play a crucial role in hemostasis.
Red blood cells, or erythrocytes, are the most common type of blood cells. They contain hemoglobin, which carries oxygen from the lungs to all parts of the body and carbon dioxide back to the lungs to be exhaled.
Red cell distribution width (RDW) is a measure of the variation in size of red blood cells. It is used to assess the uniformity of red blood cell sizes in a blood sample, which can provide insights into various types of anemia.
White blood cells (WBCs), or leukocytes, are cells of the immune system that protect the body against infectious diseases and foreign invaders. They are produced in the bone marrow and circulate in the blood and lymphatic system.
Fasting blood glucose is the level of glucose in the blood measured after a period of fasting, usually 8-12 hours without eating or drinking anything except water.
Hepatitis B surface Antigen - Only one sample of blood is needed for a hepatitis B blood test, but the “Hepatitis B Panel” includes three parts. All three test results are needed to fully understand whether a person is infected or not. Below is an explanation of the 3-part “Hepatitis B Panel” of blood test results. HBsAg (Hepatitis B surface antigen) - A "positive" or "reactive" HBsAg test result means that the person is infected with hepatitis B. This test can detect the actual presence of the hepatitis B virus (called the “surface antigen”) in your blood. If a person tests “positive,” then further testing is needed to determine if this is a new “acute” infection or a “chronic” hepatitis B infection. A positive HBsAg test result means that you are infected and can spread the hepatitis B virus to others through your blood. Hepatitis B surface Antibody - Only one sample of blood is needed for a hepatitis B blood test, but the “Hepatitis B Panel” includes three parts. All three test results are needed to fully understand whether a person is infected or not. Below is an explanation of the 3-part “Hepatitis B Panel” of blood test results. HBsAb (Hepatitis B surface antibody) - A "positive" or "reactive" anti-HBs or HBsAb test result indicates that a person is protected against the hepatitis B virus. This protection can be the result of receiving the hepatitis B vaccine or successfully recovering from a past hepatitis B infection. This test is not routinely included in blood bank screenings. A positive anti-HBs (or HBsAb) test result means you are “immune” and protected against the hepatitis B virus and cannot be infected. You are not infected and cannot spread hepatitis B to others.
Detectable during the acute stage of illness, while anti-HAV IgG may be present for many years after recovery or following vaccination. The presence of anti-HAV (IgG or IgM) in human serum or plasma is indicative of past or present infection with hepatitis A virus (HAV) or vaccination against HAV.

HDL (high-density lipoproteins), or “good” cholesterol, may protect the body against narrowing blood vessels.
Low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, commonly referred to as 'bad' cholesterol. Elevated LDL levels are associated with an increased risk of heart disease. Lipoproteins, which are combinations of fats (lipids) and proteins, are the form in which lipids are transported in the blood.
Non–HDL cholesterol is simply defined as the difference between total and HDL cholesterol and, thus, represents cholesterol carried on all of the potentially proatherogenic apoB-containing particles [primarily VLDL, IDL, and LDL as well as chylomicron remnants and lipoprotein].
Total cholesterol refers to the overall amount of cholesterol present in the blood. It includes both high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol (often referred to as “good” cholesterol) and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol (“bad” cholesterol).
The Cholesterol/HDL ratio is calculated by dividing your total cholesterol level by your HDL cholesterol level. It is used as a marker of cardiovascular risk, with lower ratios indicating lower risk.
Triglycerides are a type of fat found in your blood. They are the main form of fat stored in the body and are derived from the food we eat. Elevated levels of triglycerides can increase the risk of heart disease and other health problems.
Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT), also known as Serum Glutamic-Pyruvic Transaminase (SGPT), is an enzyme primarily found in liver cells. It plays a key role in amino acid metabolism, and its levels in the blood are used to assess liver health and diagnose liver diseases or damage.
Albumin is a protein synthesized by the liver and found in the blood plasma. It helps maintain osmotic pressure, transports substances like hormones and drugs, and regulates pH balance.
The Albumin-Globulin (A/G) ratio is a measure that compares the levels of albumin to globulins in the blood. It helps assess the overall protein status and can indicate certain health conditions when interpreted alongside other clinical findings.
Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) is an enzyme found in the liver, bones, kidneys, and digestive system. It is involved in processes such as bone mineralization and liver function.
Aspartate Aminotransferase (AST), also known as Serum Glutamic-Oxaloacetic Transaminase (SGOT), is an enzyme found in various tissues such as the liver, heart, muscles, kidneys, and brain. It plays a crucial role in amino acid metabolism and is often measured in blood tests to assess liver function and diagnose conditions like liver disease or heart attacks.
Total Bilirubin refers to the combined measurement of both direct (conjugated) and indirect (unconjugated) bilirubin in the blood. It is a waste product produced during the normal breakdown of red blood cells.
Gamma-glutamyltransferase (GGT) is an enzyme involved in the metabolism of glutathione and other gamma-glutamyl compounds, often used as a marker for liver function.
Globulin are a group of proteins found in the blood plasma, synthesized primarily in the liver. They include antibodies (immunoglobulins) and other proteins involved in immune response, as well as transport of substances like hormones and lipids.
Total protein refers to the measurement of the total amount of protein present in the blood serum or plasma. It includes albumin and globulins, which are essential for various functions including maintaining osmotic balance and supporting immune function.
Microscopic casts in urine are cylindrical structures formed in the kidney tubules. They are composed of various substances, such as protein or cells, and can indicate kidney disease or damage. They can be observed under a microscope during urine analysis.
Microscopic crystals in urine are tiny solid particles that form when substances in urine, such as minerals or salts, crystallize. They can be observed under a microscope during urine analysis.
Microscopic epithelial cells in urine refer to the presence of cells that line the surfaces of structures within the urinary tract, such as the bladder, ureters, and urethra. These cells can be observed under a microscope during urine analysis.
Microscopic mucus in urine refers to strands or clumps of mucus that are visible under a microscope during urine analysis. Mucus can be produced by various parts of the urinary tract and its presence may indicate inflammation or irritation.
“Microscopic others” in urine analysis refer to less common microscopic findings that may include yeast cells, parasites, artifacts, or other unusual elements observed under a microscope during urine examination.
Microscopic red blood cells in urine refer to the presence of erythrocytes (red blood cells) that are observed under a microscope during urine analysis. Their presence may indicate various conditions such as urinary tract infections, kidney stones, trauma to the urinary tract, or kidney disease.
Calcium is a mineral that is essential for building and maintaining strong bones and teeth. It also plays a crucial role in muscle function, nerve transmission, and hormone secretion. Calcium is primarily obtained from dairy products, leafy greens, and fortified foods.
Chloride is an ion formed from the element chlorine. It is commonly found in the body as part of salt (sodium chloride) and plays a crucial role in maintaining fluid balance, nerve function, and pH balance.
Creatinine is a waste product produced by muscles from the breakdown of a compound called creatine phosphate. It is filtered out of the blood by the kidneys and excreted in urine. Creatinine levels in the blood can indicate how well the kidneys are functioning.
Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR) using CKD-EPI equation is a calculation that estimates how well the kidneys are filtering blood. It takes into account factors such as serum creatinine level, age, sex, and ethnicity to provide an estimate of kidney function.
Phosphate is a mineral that plays a crucial role in the formation of bones and teeth. It is also essential for energy metabolism, nerve function, and maintaining acid-base balance in the body. Phosphate is found in many foods, especially dairy products, meat, and whole grains.
Potassium is a mineral that your body needs to work properly. It’s a type of electrolyte, which means it carries an electric charge when dissolved in body fluids like blood. Potassium helps regulate fluid balance, muscle contractions, and nerve signals.
Sodium is an essential mineral and electrolyte that helps regulate fluid balance, nerve function, and muscle contraction in the body.
Blood Urea Nitrogen (BUN): Urea nitrogen is a normal waste product in your blood that comes from the breakdown of protein from the foods you eat and from your body's metabolism. It is normally removed from your blood by your kidneys, but when kidney function slows down, the BUN level rises. BUN can also rise if you eat more protein, and it can fall if you eat less protein. Urine Protein: When your kidneys are damaged, protein leaks into your urine. A simple test can be done to detect protein in your urine. Persistent protein in the urine is an early sign of chronic kidney disease.
Uric acid is a waste product formed from the breakdown of purines, which are substances found in certain foods and tissues. It is normally excreted through the kidneys in urine. Elevated levels of uric acid in the blood can lead to conditions like gout or kidney stones.
Antibody tests check for HIV antibodies in blood or oral fluid. HIV antibodies are disease- fighting proteins that the body produces in response to HIV infection. Most rapid tests and home use tests are antibody tests. Antigen/antibody tests can detect both HIV antibodies and HIV antigens (a part of the virus) in blood.
Thyroid Stimulating Hormone - A TSH test is a blood test that measures this hormone. The thyroid is a small, butterfly-shaped gland located near your throat. Your thyroid makes hormones that regulate the way your body uses energy. It also plays an important role in regulating your weight, body temperature, muscle strength, and even your mood. TSH is made in a gland in the brain called the pituitary. When thyroid levels in your body are low, the pituitary gland makes more TSH. When thyroid levels are high, the pituitary gland makes less TSH. TSH levels that are too high or too low can indicate your thyroid isn't working correctly. You may need a TSH test if you have symptoms of too much thyroid hormone in your blood (hyperthyroidism), or too little thyroid hormone (hypothyroidism).
