LDL CHOLESTEROL
The LDL Cholesterol test measures the amount of "bad" cholesterol in your blood. High levels of LDL cholesterol can lead to plaque buildup in your arteries, increasing your risk of heart disease and stroke. This test is a key part of assessing your cardiovascular health.
Legionella Pneumophila IgG Antibodies
This blood test detects IgG antibodies produced by your immune system in response to an infection with Legionella pneumophila, the bacteria that causes Legionnaires' disease. The presence of these antibodies suggests a past or recent exposure to the bacteria.
Legionella Pneumophila IgM Antibodies
This test detects IgM antibodies, which are produced early in response to a Legionella pneumophila infection. It helps identify a recent or active infection with the bacteria that causes Legionnaires' disease, a severe form of pneumonia.
LEISHMANIA (KALA AZAR) ANTIBODY IgG
This test identifies IgG antibodies produced by the immune system in response to a Leishmania infection, specifically the type causing visceral leishmaniasis (Kala-azar). IgG antibodies indicate past exposure or a chronic infection.
Leishmania Dodovani (LD) Bodies, Blood
This test involves examining a blood smear under a microscope to directly identify Leishmania donovani (LD) bodies, which are the parasitic forms found within cells. It's a direct method to confirm an active Leishmania infection.
Leishmania Dodovani (LD) Bodies, Bone Marrow
This test involves examining a bone marrow aspirate under a microscope to directly identify Leishmania donovani (LD) bodies. It is considered a highly sensitive and definitive method for diagnosing visceral leishmaniasis, especially when blood tests are inconclusive.
Leptospira Detection by smear examination, Blood
This test involves examining a blood sample under a microscope to directly look for the presence of Leptospira bacteria. It's a quick method to identify the bacteria that cause leptospirosis, especially in the early stages of infection.
Leptospira Detection by smear examination, CSF
This test involves examining a sample of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) under a microscope to directly look for Leptospira bacteria. CSF is the fluid surrounding your brain and spinal cord, and this test is performed when there's suspicion of the infection affecting the central nervous system.
Leptospira Detection by smear examination, Urine
This test involves examining a urine sample under a microscope to directly look for Leptospira bacteria. While bacteria may not be present in urine during the very early stages of infection, they are often shed in urine later, making this test useful for diagnosis.
LEPTOSPIRA DNA PCR, BLOOD
This advanced test uses Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) technology to detect the genetic material (DNA) of Leptospira bacteria in a blood sample. PCR is highly sensitive and can identify the bacteria even when present in very small amounts, offering a precise diagnosis.
LEPTOSPIRA DNA PCR, URINE
This test detects the genetic material (DNA) of the Leptospira bacteria in your urine. It's used to diagnose an active Leptospirosis infection, especially in the early stages when the bacteria might be present in the urine.
LEPTOSPIRA IgG ANTIBODIES
This blood test checks for IgG antibodies produced by your immune system in response to a Leptospira infection. IgG antibodies usually appear later in the infection and can indicate a past or chronic infection, or immunity.
