What does this test Iron Test identify?

Iron Test

The Iron Test is a diagnostic test that measures the levels of iron in the blood. Iron is an essential mineral that is important for many bodily functions, including the production of red blood cells. This test is often used to diagnose conditions such as iron deficiency anemia, hemochromatosis, and other disorders of iron metabolism.

Low iron levels may indicate iron deficiency anemia, which can cause symptoms such as fatigue, weakness, and shortness of breath. High iron levels may indicate hemochromatosis, a condition where the body absorbs too much iron and can lead to organ damage.

The Iron Test is typically performed by drawing a blood sample and measuring the levels of iron in the serum. Results are usually reported in micrograms per deciliter (mcg/dL) or micromoles per liter (umol/L).
