INVESTIGATIONS | |
Urine Routine | An array of tests performed on urine helps detect alterations in the composition of urine e.g.- protein, blood, sugar, bilirubin in urine or infection. |
Stool Routine | A stool analysis is a series of tests done on a stool (feces) sample to help diagnose infection (such as from parasites, viruses, or bacteria poor nutrient absorption or presence of blood). |
Complete Blood Count (CBC) | To diagnose Anemia, infection, bleeding disorders, abnormal cells. |
Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (ESR) | ESR is increased by inflammation or infection. |

LIVER PROFILE | |
Albumin Alkaline Phosphatase Bilirubin Gamma GT Serum Protein SGOT SGPT |
These tests can be used to (1) detect the presence of liver disease, (2) distinguish among different types of liver disorders, (3) gauge the extent of known liver damage and (4) follow the response to treatment. |
KIDNEY PROFILE | |
Bicarbonate Bun Calcium Chloride Creatinine Potassium Sodium Uric Acid |
Overall assessment of Kidney function. High Calcium and Uric acid levels may be associated with certain diseases. |
VIRAL MARKERS | |

CARDIAC RISK EVALUATION | |
ECG | ECG is used to measure the rate and regularity of heartbeats, as well as size and position of the chambers, and the presence of any damage to the heart. |
Echo with Color Doppler | Evaluates the pumping capacity of heart, condition of valves and thickness of heart muscle. |
Stress Test | Continuous ECG recorded during exercise on Treadmill. It aids in detection of coronary artery disease (Heart functional capacity, blockages in heart blood vessels.) |
CARDIAC MARKERS | |

USG Abdomen USG Pelvis / GYN |
A Sonography of upper abdomen and pelvis is carried out to detect - Liver, Gall bladder, Pancreas, Spleen, Kidney, diseases of pelvic organs uterus, ovaries (in females), prostrate (in males). |
BMD for Spine and Hip | Absolute amount of bone as measured by bone mineral density testing generally correlates with bone strength and its ability to bear weight, detection of Osteoporosis/ Osteopenia. |
Mammography | It is an x-ray of the breast which shows the fatty, fibrous and glandular tissues. The purpose of screening mammography is breast cancer detection. |
