Parathyroid Hormone & Ionized Calcium Profile [Referral]

Test Code

8020

$59.00

About this Test

Measurement of parathyroid hormone (PTH) and ionized calcium. Used in diagnosis of: calcium metabolic disorders, hypoparathyroidism, hyperparathyroidism (primary or secondary), malignancy, vitamin D disorders, renal disease, hypercalcemia, and hypocalcemia. Also used to monitor calcitriol therapy.

Specimen
