Overview

Your kidneys filter excess water and waste out of your blood. When the kidneys are not healthy, they cannot filter blood normally, leading to various health complications. Diabetes and high blood pressure increase the risk of kidney disease.

Kidney disease screening

Blood tests help doctors assess many aspects of your health through how your organs function, allowing them to evaluate your risk factors for kidney disease and other conditions. Blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and creatinine are waste products filtered by the kidneys; a blood test screens for any abnormalities in these two values. Results outside the reference range may indicate the need for further evaluation. Our dry biochemistry test is highly sensitive and is used successfully worldwide.
