This test package helps check your bone health by measuring important minerals and proteins that keep your bones strong. It is especially useful to find signs of bone weakness or early bone loss, which can increase the risk of fractures. The tests included measuring substances like calcium, which is key for strong bones, and proteins that show inflammation or bone activity. Doctors use this package to get a clear picture of how well your bones are doing and to detect any changes early so you can take care of your bone health.

What's Included in My Package?

C-Reactive Protein (CRP), Quantitative (1)	Detects inflammation levels in the body
