Diagnostic tests centers conduct various tests on bodily fluid for proper diagnosis of any health condition. On the appearance of various symptoms, doctors might suggest their patients carry out certain tests in these centers so that they could use the help of these test reports along with the symptoms to properly diagnose disease in their patients and take immediate actions regarding the treatment of the patients. Sometimes, they might ask their patients to undergo various imaging tests or other tests to confirm their diagnosis. Let us discuss the most common form of blood tests carried out in some of the best diagnostic centers operating in Chembur and many other parts of India.

Cholesterol and lipid tests

These tests include checking the level of HDL-cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol, and triglycerides in the blood. Doctors might advise to carry out this test for assessing the risk of developing any form of heart diseases. Patients with cholesterol problems need to conduct this test regularly to monitor the cholesterol level in their blood.

Calcium blood tests

These tests are done in different blood test centers in Chembur and many other parts of India, to check the level of calcium in the blood. Calcium is required for strengthening the bones and also for the proper functioning of different parts of the body such as heart, muscles, and nerves. However excess calcium in the blood can make a person feel tired, thirsty and might cause them to lose appetite or experience constipation. On the other hand, a low level of calcium might make them feel numb in hands, feet and also around the mouth. This test is also carried out to diagnose intestinal diseases, kidney diseases, thyroid diseases, poor nutrition, bone diseases and maybe some types of cancer.

Blood Glucose Tests

These are also known as blood sugar tests as these tests show the level of sugar or glucose in the blood. Different diagnostic centers also arranged home blood sample collection in Chembur and many other parts of Mumbai to carry out these tests. These tests are carried out to check whether a patient is developing diabetes and also to monitor the diabetes condition of a patient.  Patients may or may not be asked to fast before conducting these tests. Many pregnant women may develop a certain type of diabetes which is known as gestational diabetes which usually goes away after the birth of the baby. In these women, the test is conducted during their 28 weeks of pregnancy.

C-reactive protein (CRP) test

This test is carried out in some of the best Pathology Lab in Mumbai and other parts of India. C-reactive protein is generally produced in the liver before they are released to the blood. This test is done to determine whether a patient is experiencing any form of infections or inflammation in the body or whether the patient is responding to the treatment for such infections.
 
Different types of blood tests are carried as a part of routine annual health checkups or doctors might advise them if they suspect the occurrence of any particular health condition in a patient.
