Included Tests
Urea is a waste product formed in the liver and excreted by the kidneys. Elevated levels may indicate potential issues with kidney function.
Creatinine is a waste product produced by muscles. The kidneys filter creatinine from the blood, and elevated levels may suggest impaired kidney function.
e-GFR is a measure of how well your kidneys are filtering waste from the blood. It is calculated using creatinine levels, age, gender, and other factors.
