1. XRay
An X-Ray is a diagnostic imaging test that uses electromagnetic radiation to create images of the inside of the body. It helps in diagnosing fractures, infections, and other abnormalities.
Preparation depends on the type of X-Ray. Generally, you may need to remove clothing or metal objects from the area being imaged. Follow specific instructions given by your healthcare provider.
The X-Ray procedure is usually quick, taking only a few minutes. The actual imaging process typically lasts less than 15 minutes.
Results are not usually provided immediately. A radiologist will review the images and send a report to your healthcare provider, which may take a few days.
Yes, most medications can be continued as usual. However, inform your healthcare provider about any medications you are taking, especially if you are pregnant.
2. IONISED CALCIUM
The Ionised Calcium test measures the level of free, biologically active calcium in the blood, which is crucial for various bodily functions.
It provides a more accurate assessment of calcium levels compared to total calcium tests, helping diagnose and manage conditions affecting calcium balance.
No special preparation is usually needed. Inform your healthcare provider about any medications or supplements, and follow any specific instructions given.
Results are typically available within a few hours to 1 day after the blood sample is processed.
The test helps diagnose calcium imbalances, parathyroid disorders, kidney dysfunction, bone health issues, and cancer-related hypercalcemia.
3. DENGUE IGG
A positive result indicates past infection with the Dengue virus or successful vaccination against Dengue.
No, additional tests, such as Dengue IgM or PCR, may be required to differentiate recent infections from past ones.
No, the Dengue IgG test is not suitable for diagnosing acute Dengue infection. IgG antibodies appear later in the course of infection.
Dengue IgG antibodies can remain detectable in the bloodstream for months to years after infection or vaccination.
A negative result suggests no detectable Dengue IgG antibodies. If symptoms persist or there is a recent exposure, consult a healthcare provider for further evaluation.
