What is SILVER, BLOOD?

This test measures the amount of silver present in your blood. It is typically performed to assess exposure to silver, which can occur through certain medications, occupational contact, or environmental sources, and to check for potential silver toxicity.

Why is this test important?

Monitoring blood silver levels is important for diagnosing argyria, a condition caused by chronic silver exposure leading to skin discoloration. It also helps evaluate occupational exposure or adverse effects from silver-containing medical devices or supplements.

How to Prepare

No special preparation required.
