Bone Profile Test:
Bone profile tests, also known as bone metabolism tests, are diagnostic evaluations used to assess the health and strength of bones. These tests help healthcare providers diagnose conditions affecting bone health, such as osteoporosis, osteomalacia, and Paget's disease. Common bone profile tests include:
Calcium Test: Measures the level of calcium in the blood. Calcium is essential for bone health, and abnormal levels can indicate conditions such as hypercalcemia (high calcium levels) or hypocalcemia (low calcium levels).
Phosphorus Test: Measures the level of phosphorus in the blood. Phosphorus is another mineral important for bone health, and abnormal levels can indicate bone disorders.
Alkaline Phosphatase (ALP) Test: Measures the level of ALP, an enzyme produced by the bones and liver. Elevated levels can indicate conditions affecting bone growth or liver disease.
Total Protein Test: Measures the total amount of protein in the blood, including albumin and globulin. Abnormal protein levels can indicate bone disorders or other health issues.
Albumin Test: Measures the level of albumin, a protein produced by the liver. Abnormal albumin levels can indicate liver disease or malnutrition, which can affect bone health.
Vitamin D Test: Measures the level of vitamin D in the blood. Vitamin D is essential for calcium absorption and bone health, and deficiency can lead to bone disorders such as osteoporosis.
Parathyroid Hormone (PTH) Test: Measures the level of PTH, which regulates calcium and phosphorus levels in the blood. Abnormal PTH levels can indicate conditions such as hyperparathyroidism, which can affect bone health.
Bone Turnover Markers: These include tests for substances such as osteocalcin and C-terminal telopeptide (CTX), which are markers of bone formation and resorption. Abnormal levels can indicate bone disorders.
Dual-energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DEXA) Scan: While not a blood test, a DEXA scan is often used to measure bone mineral density and assess the risk of fractures due to osteoporosis.
At AMMA DIAGNOSTIC CENTRE, we offer a range of bone profile tests to assess bone health and diagnose conditions affecting the bones. Our experienced team can provide accurate and timely results, along with personalized treatment recommendations based on your test results and symptoms.

What do the results mean?
Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the when an unknown printer on took a galley of type scrambled it to make a type specimen book it has survived and not five centuries be also the leap into electronic typesetting remaining essentially and unchanged. It was popularised in with the release sheets containing passages and more recently with desktop.
