Comprehensive Metabolic Panel (CMP) - This test measures various substances in the blood, including glucose, electrolytes, and kidney and liver function tests. It can help assess overall health and detect conditions such as diabetes, liver disease, and kidney dysfunction.
Urinalysis (UA) - This test examines a urine sample for the presence of various substances, such as proteins, glucose, and blood cells. It can provide information about kidney function and detect urinary tract infections, kidney stones, and other conditions.
Lipid Panel (LP) - This test measures levels of cholesterol and triglycerides in the blood. It can help assess cardiovascular health and detect risk factors for heart disease and stroke.
Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone (TSH) - This test measures the level of TSH in the blood, which can indicate how well the thyroid gland is functioning. Abnormal TSH levels can indicate thyroid dysfunction, such as hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism.
