Kidney
12 markers in this category
Citrate
Urinary citrate testing provides insight into your kidney stone risk. Maintaining healthy citrate levels is an important part of proactive kidney health management and stone prevention.
Creatinine
Creatinine is the most widely used marker for kidney function assessment. Regular monitoring provides early insight into kidney health and helps ensure timely intervention if filtration capacity begins to decline.
Creatinine (Urine)
Urinary creatinine testing helps assess kidney filtration efficiency and ensures accurate interpretation of other urine tests. It is a practical component of comprehensive health screening.
Cystatin C
Cystatin C is an advanced kidney function marker that provides a highly accurate estimate of filtration rate. When combined with creatinine testing, it offers the most comprehensive assessment of kidney health available.
Microalbumin (Urine)
Microalbumin testing is a proactive screening tool that detects early signs of kidney damage before symptoms develop. Regular monitoring supports timely intervention and helps maintain long-term kidney health.
Oxalate
Urinary oxalate testing helps assess your risk of calcium oxalate kidney stones. Proactive monitoring allows you to make informed dietary and hydration choices to support long-term kidney health.
Protein (Urine)
Proteinuria testing is a straightforward screening tool for kidney health. Detecting protein in urine early can help identify conditions such as kidney disease or diabetes-related kidney changes before significant damage occurs.
Urea (BUN)
BUN is a key kidney function marker that provides valuable insight into how well your kidneys filter waste products. Regular monitoring helps detect potential kidney issues early, supporting proactive health management.
Urine Culture
A urine culture accurately identifies the bacteria causing a urinary tract infection and determines the most effective antibiotic treatment. This targeted approach supports faster recovery and helps prevent antibiotic resistance.
Urine Screening
Urine screening is a simple, comprehensive test that assesses multiple health parameters at once. It serves as an excellent baseline screening tool for proactive health management, detecting potential issues from kidney health to metabolic status.
Urine Sediment
Urine sediment analysis provides a detailed microscopic examination of your urine, offering insights beyond what a standard dipstick test can reveal. It supports thorough evaluation of kidney health and helps detect conditions at an early stage.
eGFR (Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate)
eGFR is the most important measure of kidney function and the primary tool for detecting chronic kidney disease early. Regular monitoring empowers you to take proactive steps to protect your kidney health before symptoms develop.
