Laboratory tests

An extensive laboratory test (blood, urine, stool), like the Dr. Keulen Kliniek performs as a standard, provides information about a lot of aspects within your body and about your state of health.

Through the blood:

• heart (GOT/CK/LDH)
• liver (GammaGT/ GPT/GOT)
• bile (GammaGT/ AF)
• pancreas (amylase)
• muscles (CK/ GPT)
• kidneys (creatinine/ urea)
• fat metabolism (cholesterol/ HDL/ triglycerides)
• minerals (sodium, potassium, calcium, phosphate)
• protein metabolism (total protein/ albumin/ uronic acid, urea)
• diabetes (glucose/ HBA-1C)
• anemia (Hb/ HT/ mcv)
• infection/ inflammation (BSE/ leukocyte differentiation/ CRP)
• thrombosis (platelets)

Through urine:

• specific gravity
• number of leukocytes (inflammation cells)
• PH (acid value)
• nitrite (bacteria)
• protein – glucose (sugar)
• ketone bodies (degradation substances)
• urobilinogen and bilirubin (bile pigments)
• blood

Many other laboratory tests can also be performed upon request, for example into:

• trace elements (selenium, zinc)
• heavy metals (lead, chrome, cadmium)
• thyroid function
