Calcium
To screen for diagnose and monitor a range of conditions

When To Get Tested: As part of a routine metabolic panel when you have symptoms of a disorder or known presence of one affecting your kidneys bones thyroid parathyroid or nerves or when symptoms of significantly increased or decreased calcium concentrations are present when someone is critically ill to monitor ionized calcium levels when someone has certain types cancer when someone is being treated for abnormal calcium levels to evaluate the effectiveness of treatment

Normal Test Result: normal amount of calcium (somewhere between 8.6 mg/dL to 10.3 mg/dL)
Electrolytes - Sodium
To detect an EGFR gene mutation in tumor tissue to help guide treatment of non-small cell lung cancer
Specimen:A sample of cancer tissue obtained during a biopsy
When To Get Tested: When you have been diagnosed with non-small cell lung cancer and your health practitioner is considering treatment with tyrosine kinase inhibitors such as gefitinib and erlotinib
Test Preparation:None
Normal Test Result: 136 - 146
Ferritin
To screen for digestive tract bleeding which may be an indicator of colon cancer
Specimen:Three stool samples are typically collected over several days and prepared on occult blood cards in order to provide for the most effective screening
When To Get Tested: Annually beginning at age 50 as part of a routine examination to screen for colon cancer as directed by your healthcare provider based on your family medical history
Test Preparation:For the guiac-based FOBT gFOBT you will be instructed to avoid certain medications and follow certain dietary restrictions for several days before collecting the stool samples For the fecal immunochemical test FIT there are no dietary or drug restrictions

Iron
Along with other iron tests to determine your blood iron level along with other tests to help diagnose iron-deficiency anemia or iron overload
Specimen:A blood sample drawn from a vein in your arm
When To Get Tested: When you have low hemoglobin and hematocrit on a complete blood count CBC when your healthcare practitioner suspects that you may have too little iron deficiency or too much iron overload in your body
Test Preparation:You may be instructed to have your blood drawn in the morning and or fast for 12 hours before sample collection in this case only water is permitted Follow any instructions from your healthcare practitioner and or from the laboratory performing the test
Normal Test Result: 60 micrograms per deciliter (mcg/dL)to 170 micrograms per deciliter (mcg/dL), or 10.74 to 30.43 micromoles per liter (micromol/L)
Lipid-panel
To assess your risk of developing cardiovascular disease CVD to monitor treatment
Specimen:A blood sample obtained by inserting a needle into a vein in your arm or from a fingerstick
When To Get Tested: Screening when no risk factors present for adults every four to six years for youths once between the ages of 9 and 11 and again between ages 17 and 21 Monitoring at regular intervals when risk factors are present when prior results showed high risk levels and or to monitor effectiveness of treatment
Test Preparation:Typically fasting for 9-12 hours water only before having your blood drawn is required but some labs offer non-fasting lipid testing Follow any instructions you are given and tell the person drawing your blood whether or not you have fasted For youths without risk factors testing may be done without fasting
Normal Test Result: the ratio should be below 4
Phosphorus
To evaluate the level of phosphorus in your blood and to aid in the diagnosis of conditions known to cause abnormally high or low levels of phosphorus
Specimen:A blood sample drawn from a vein in your arm or sometimes a timed urine collection usually a 24-hour sample
When To Get Tested: In follow up to an abnormal calcium level when you have a kidney disorder or uncontrolled diabetes when you are taking calcium or phosphate supplements
Test Preparation:Overnight fasting may be required for a blood sample follow any instructions that you are given
Normal Test Result:
Renal-panel
To help diagnose and manage conditions affecting kidney function may be used as part of general health screening or to screen someone who is at risk of developing kidney disease or to follow someone with known kidney disease
Specimen:A blood sample drawn from a vein in your arm
When To Get Tested: When you have signs and symptoms that suggest that you may have a condition affecting the function of your kidneys when you are being treated for kidney disease when you have certain risk factors for kidney disease such as high blood pressure or diabetes
Test Preparation:You may be instructed to fast for 8-12 hours no food only water prior to the test
Normal Test Result: 0.6 mg/dL –1.1 mg/dL in women and 0.7–1.3 mg/dL in men

To screen for and help diagnose thyroid disorders to monitor treatment of hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism
Specimen:A blood sample drawn from a vein in your arm or from pricking the heel of an infant
When To Get Tested: For screening Newborn screening is widely recommended however there is no consensus within the medical community as to the age adult screening should begin or whether screening should be done For monitoring treatment as directed by your healthcare provider Otherwise when a person has symptoms of hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism and or an enlarged thyroid
Test Preparation:None needed however certain medications can interfere with the TSH test so tell your health practitioner about any drugs that you are taking If you take thyroid hormone as treatment for thyroid disease it is recommended that your blood sample be drawn before you take your dose for that day
Normal Test Result: from 0.4 mIU/L to 4.0 mIU/L for those with no symptoms of an under- or over-active thyroid
Transferrin-and-iron-binding-capacity-tibc-uibc
Along with other iron tests to assess your body s ability to transport iron in the blood to help diagnose iron-deficiency or iron overload
Specimen:A blood sample drawn from a vein in your arm
When To Get Tested: When you have low hemoglobin and hematocrit on a complete blood count CBC when your healthcare practitioner suspects you may have too much iron overload or too little iron deficiency in the body
Test Preparation:You may be instructed to have your blood drawn in the morning and or fast for 12 hours before the test in this case only water is allowed Follow any instructions from your healthcare practitioner and or from the laboratory performing the test

Vitamin-d-tests
To determine if you have a vitamin D deficiency if you are receiving vitamin D supplementation to determine if it is adequate
Specimen:A blood sample drawn from a vein in your arm
When To Get Tested: When you have an abnormal calcium phosphorus and or parathyroid hormone level when you have evidence of bone disease or bone weakness when you are at high risk of deficiency or a healthcare practitioner suspects that you might have a vitamin D deficiency prior to starting drug treatment for osteoporosis periodically to monitor treatment of vitamin D deficiency

Fasting Blood Sugar
This is the test that measures blood sugar levels. Elevated levels are associated with diabetes and insulin resistance, in which the body cannot properly handle sugar.
Complete Blood Count
To determine your general health status; to screen for, diagnose, or monitor any one of a variety of diseases and conditions that affect blood cells. A blood sample is drawn from a vein in your arm or a fingerstick
Liver Function Test
Liver function tests, also known as liver chemistries, help determine the health of your liver by measuring the levels of proteins, liver enzymes, and bilirubin in your blood
