This serum iron study panel may help diagnose iron deficiency or overload. Because ferritin level can be affected by clinical conditions other than iron disorders, the measurement of transferrin saturation-calculated from serum iron level and total iron binding capacity (TIBC)-in the same serum specimen may facilitate the diagnosis of iron ...
Serum iron studies are useful in the evaluation of disorders of iron metabolism, particularly iron deficiency and iron excess. Iron studies are best performed when the patient is fasting in the morning and has abstained from medications that may influence iron balance.
Iron, Total - Serum measurements are useful in the diagnosis of iron deficiency and hemochromatosis.
Iron, Total and Total Iron Binding Capacity - Serum iron quantification is useful in confirming the diagnosis of iron-deficiency anemia or hemochromatosis.
A TIBC (total iron-binding capacity) test is a blood test that measures your blood’s ability (capacity) to attach (bind) to iron and carry it throughout your body. Healthcare providers use it to help diagnose iron-deficiency anemia and other iron metabolism conditions.
9 Ιουν 2018 · Learn the possible causes of an abnormal serum iron test result, and how to treat the underlying conditions.
Different types of iron tests include: Serum iron test, which measures the amount of iron in the blood; Transferrin test, which measures transferrin, a protein that moves iron throughout the body; Total iron-binding capacity (TIBC), which measures how well iron attaches to transferrin and other proteins in the blood
