The Vital Role of Medical Laboratory Tests
Laboratory diagnostics are an essential pillar of modern healthcare, offering invaluable insights that support:
- Accurate and definitive diagnoses.
- Tailored treatment plans, including medication selection and dosage optimization.
- Monitoring and management of chronic conditions.
- Routine health screenings to maintain overall well-being.
At Klinika Kajo, our laboratory is equipped with advanced technologies to perform a wide range of clinical, biochemical, immunological, hormonal, oncological, and bacteriological tests. Here’s a closer look at some of the key analyses we provide.
Comprehensive Clinical Analyses
- Complete Blood Count (CBC): Provides a detailed overview of blood components, including:
- White blood cells (WBC).
- Red blood cells (RBC).
- Platelets (PLT).
- Differential Leukocyte Count: Measures the proportions of various white blood cell types.
- Complete Urinalysis: A simple yet effective test to identify the presence of leukocytes, erythrocytes, and bacteria in the urine.
Advanced Biochemical Analyses
Kidney Function Tests
Liver Function Tests
Diabetes Markers
Lipid Profile
Pancreatic Function Markers
Inflammatory Markers
- C-Reactive Protein (CRP): Elevated levels may indicate conditions like appendicitis, pancreatitis, rheumatoid diseases, or inflammatory bowel diseases. CRP is also a marker for cardiovascular risk assessment.
Coagulation and Blood Clotting Markers
- Fibrinogen: Evaluates blood clotting factors and monitors progressive diseases.
- Prothrombin Time/INR: Essential for managing anticoagulant therapy and monitoring chronic liver diseases.
Other Biochemical Tests
- Albumin: Assesses liver function; low levels may indicate chronic liver diseases.
- Total Proteins: Reflects nutritional status and kidney/liver health.
- Uric Acid: Elevated levels may suggest gout or joint diseases.
- Iron Studies: Measures serum iron and ferritin to diagnose and monitor anemia.
- Electrolytes: Tracks calcium, potassium, magnesium, chloride, and sodium levels.
- Folic Acid and Vitamin B12: Diagnose specific types of anemia.
- CPK (Creatine Phosphokinase): Detects heart attacks, muscle disorders, or postoperative infections.
- Rheumatoid Factor: Assists in diagnosing rheumatoid arthritis and other autoimmune disorders.
Comprehensive Immunological Analyses
- Hepatitis Markers:
- HIV Screening: Detects HIV infections.
- ASO (Anti-Streptolysin O): Identifies streptococcal infections.
- Fecal Occult Blood Test: A critical screening tool for colorectal cancer.
- H. Pylori Antigen Test: Detects H. pylori infections via stool samples.
Hormonal Testing
Tumor Markers
- CEA (Carcinoembryonic Antigen): Tracks cancers of the gastrointestinal tract, breast, and lungs.
- AFP (Alpha-Fetoprotein): Monitors tumors of the liver, skin, and intestines and detects testicular cancer.
- CA 19-9: Assesses pancreatic, stomach, liver, and colorectal cancers.
- CA 125: Primarily monitors ovarian cancer but may also indicate cervical, liver, or pancreatic tumors.
- PSA/Free PSA: Screens for prostate cancer and monitors ongoing treatments.
Bacteriological Testing
- Stool Parasite Test: Identifies common parasites like Giardia lamblia.
- Stool Candida Test: Detects fungal infections in the digestive tract.
- Stool Culture: Screens for bacteria like Salmonella and Shigella.
- Urine Culture: Identifies urinary tract infections caused by pathogens like E. coli.
- Throat Culture: Diagnoses bacterial or fungal infections in the respiratory tract.
