What is LAMBDA LIGHT CHAIN QUANTITATIVE, URINE RANDOM?
This test measures the amount of lambda light chains in a single, random urine sample. Light chains are components of antibodies, and their presence in urine can indicate kidney issues or certain blood disorders.
Why is this test important?
A random urine lambda light chain test can be used as a screening tool or for quick assessment of protein excretion. It aids in detecting and monitoring conditions like multiple myeloma or other plasma cell dyscrasias, especially when a 24-hour collection is impractical.
How to Prepare
No special preparation required. You can provide a urine sample at any time.
