Introduction of Medical Lab Tests

Medical lab tests are tests performed on samples of blood, urine, or other body fluids or tissues to help diagnose, treat, and monitor various medical conditions. These tests provide important information about the functioning of organs and body systems, identify infections or diseases, and help doctors make informed decisions about treatment options.

Panel of Tests

Panel of Tests: A panel of tests refers to a group of medical lab tests that are performed together to provide a comprehensive assessment of a particular condition or disease. For example, a lipid panel is a group of tests that measures cholesterol and triglycerides levels in the blood to assess the risk of heart disease. A metabolic panel is another group of tests that measures various substances in the blood to evaluate kidney and liver function.
