Abstract Twenty-nine tests in laboratory hematology, blood chemistry, and urinalysis are presented; some, such as the red and white counts, hemoglobin, urinalysis, etc., are used routinely, but others are less frequently employed. No new concepts are offered, but an attempt has been made to present, in a condensed, practical form, laboratory tests ...

The Interpretation of Laboratory Tests
Primary Care: Clinics in Office Practice, 1980The usefulness of a laboratory test in clinical medicine depends on thorough knowledge of the characteristics of the test, awareness of its limitations, and timely ordering of the test in the appropriate clinical setting. Limitations inherent to testing, risks of testing, and suggested guidelines for ordering tests are discussed.

To the Editor.— Of the reasons cited by Dr Lundberg for ordering laboratory tests (1983;249:639), perhaps the least supportable and of least potential benefit to the patient is habit . Before September 1982, our laboratory, supporting a 160-bed, tertiary care, pediatric teaching hospital, performed an average of four urine chloride determinations ...

[Preoperative laboratory testing].
Minerva medica, 2005The preoperative laboratory screening is commonplace in clinical practice and is traditionally defined as the practice of prescribing laboratory testing before surgery on patients undergoing a given procedure. The wide heterogeneity of the solutions prospected over the past decades emphasizes the objective difficulty at issuing definitive guidelines ...

For many years innumerable claims have been made for blood tests capable of detecting the presence of clinically occult cancer, but none of the many ‘cancer tests’ has withstood detailed evaluation. However, some are available with potential use in screening for neoplasia, for making the initial diagnosis, for localisation of occult neoplasia and ...

Abstract This chapter describes the way genetic testing is done. Essentially, the test measures the number of CAGs which are repeated in the first part of the gene. It is possible to measure the size of a section of the gene for Huntington’s disease (HD) so as to know how many CAG repeats are present in the gene.
