1. What is colectomy surgery?
Colectomy surgery involves the removal of part or all of the colon to treat conditions like cancer, IBD, or diverticulitis.
2. FERRITIN
The Ferritin Test measures the amount of ferritin in your blood, indicating your body’s total iron stores.
It helps diagnose and monitor iron-related conditions like anemia and iron overload disorders, providing crucial insights into your iron metabolism.
A simple blood sample is collected and analyzed to determine ferritin levels, usually requiring no special preparation.
Low levels suggest iron deficiency, while high levels can indicate iron overload, chronic inflammation, or liver disease.
Frequency depends on individual health conditions and risk factors. Consult your healthcare provider for personalized advice.
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.
