VANADIUM
This test measures the level of vanadium in your blood. Vanadium is a trace element found naturally in some foods and the environment, and it can also be present in industrial settings or certain dietary supplements.
VARICELLA ZOSTER VIRUS (VZV) QUALITATIVE PCR
This test detects the genetic material (DNA) of the Varicella Zoster Virus (VZV) in your blood. It's used to confirm an active infection with the virus responsible for chickenpox and shingles.
Vibrio parahaemolyticus PCR
This PCR test detects the DNA of *Vibrio parahaemolyticus*, a bacterium commonly associated with seafood-related food poisoning. It helps identify the cause of gastrointestinal illness, particularly after consuming raw or undercooked seafood.
Vibrio vulnificus PCR
This PCR test identifies the genetic material of *Vibrio vulnificus*, a bacterium that can cause severe infections, especially in individuals with underlying health conditions. It's used to diagnose infections from contaminated seafood or exposure to contaminated water.
Viscosity, Serum
This test measures the thickness or stickiness of your blood serum. It helps assess how easily blood flows through your vessels, which can impact overall circulation and organ function.
Vitamin A (Retinol), Serum
This test measures the level of Vitamin A (retinol) in your blood serum. Vitamin A is essential for good vision, immune function, and healthy skin, playing a vital role in many bodily processes.
Vitamin B3 (Nicotinamide), Serum
The Vitamin B3 (Nicotinamide) test measures the level of this essential nutrient in your blood. Vitamin B3 plays a vital role in converting food into energy, supporting nerve function, and maintaining healthy skin.
Voltage-gated Calcium Channel Antibody (VGCCA)
This test identifies antibodies that target voltage-gated calcium channels, which are crucial for nerve and muscle communication. Detecting these antibodies helps diagnose certain autoimmune neurological disorders that affect muscle strength and function.
Vulvar Culture and Sensitivity
This test identifies bacteria or fungi causing infections in the vulvar area. It helps determine the specific microbe responsible for symptoms like itching, burning, or unusual discharge.
West Nile Virus (WNV) Antibody IgG and IgM
This blood test detects antibodies produced by your immune system in response to a West Nile Virus infection. IgM antibodies indicate a recent or active infection, while IgG antibodies suggest a past infection or immunity.
West Nile Virus Antibody, CSF
This test analyzes cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) for West Nile Virus antibodies, specifically when there's concern about neurological involvement. It helps determine if the virus has affected the brain or spinal cord.
Whole Exome Sequencing
Whole Exome Sequencing (WES) is a powerful genetic test that examines all the protein-coding regions of your genes, known as the exome. It helps identify genetic variations that may be linked to inherited diseases or health conditions.
