Listed more than onceA line in the lab's list that names a test already on the list. The advertised count goes up by one; you still get one result. We show the lab's own labels, exactly as printed, so you can check each one yourself.
3 lines of the advertised count come from 3 tests listed more than once.
- Findings of one test, listed one by oneOne examination that can report several findings, with each possible finding listed as if it were its own test. A microscope look at urine reports whichever crystals are there; ten crystal types are still one test.+1 in the count
Eggs and larvae are possible findings of the same microscopy, not separate tests.
- Same test, listed twiceTwo names for one test, or the same name printed twice. Often the test appears in two sections of the report, such as the lipid profile and a heart risk panel. It is one reading from one sample.+1 in the count
“Neutrophils” and “Segmented Neutrophils” are two names for Neutrophils: one reading from one sample, so it counts once.
- Same test, listed twiceTwo names for one test, or the same name printed twice. Often the test appears in two sections of the report, such as the lipid profile and a heart risk panel. It is one reading from one sample.+1 in the count
“R.B.C.” and “RBC” are two names for Urine RBC: one reading from one sample, so it counts once.

Real tests, and free maths
16 of these 82 aren’t tests. They’re arithmetic on results you already paid for. No extra sample, no extra assay, no extra cost to the lab. Each one still adds a line to the advertised count.
This package is advertised as 91 tests. 20% of what we could resolve is calculated rather than measured.
Show the arithmetic›what each calculated value is worked out from
- Estimated Average Glucose= (28.7 × HbA1c) − 46.7
- Blood Urea Nitrogen= Blood Urea ÷ 2.14
- GFR Category= Banding of the eGFR value
- eGFR= CKD-EPI equation on creatinine, age and sex
- BUN / Creatinine Ratio= Blood Urea Nitrogen ÷ Creatinine
- Bilirubin Indirect= Total Bilirubin − Direct Bilirubin
- A/G Ratio= Albumin ÷ Globulin
- Globulin= Total Protein − Albumin
- Non-HDL Cholesterol= Total Cholesterol − HDL
- VLDL Cholesterol= Triglycerides ÷ 5
- Absolute Basophil Count= WBC count × Basophil %
- Absolute Eosinophil Count= WBC count × Eosinophil %
- Absolute Lymphocyte Count= WBC count × Lymphocyte %
- Absolute Monocyte Count= WBC count × Monocyte %
- MCH= Hemoglobin ÷ RBC count
- MCHC= Hemoglobin ÷ Haematocrit
None of this means a calculated value is useless. eGFR is calculated and doctors act on it every day. The narrower point is the one that matters when you are comparing prices: these were not separately tested, so they should not be separately counted.
Every input above is itself on the same report. For example, BUN / Creatinine Ratio needs nothing beyond Blood Urea Nitrogen and Serum Creatinine, both already measured.
