This package does not include tests from 2 key health areas.
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.
17 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.+9 in the countAmorphous phosphate crystalsAmorphous urates crystalsCalcium oxalate dihydrate crystalsCalcium oxalate monohydrate crystalsCalcium PhosphateCystine crystalsLeucine crystalsTriple Phosphate crystalsTyrosine crystalsUric acid crystalsone test: Urine Crystals
One look at a urine sample under the microscope reports whichever crystals are there. Each crystal type is a possible finding of that one test, not a test of its own.

Casts are seen in the same microscope look at a urine sample. Each cast type is a possible finding of that one test, not a test of its own.

Rods and cocci are two shapes of bacteria the same urine microscopy might see. One test, two possible findings.

Real tests, and free maths
11 of these 52 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 57 tests. 21% of what we could resolve is calculated rather than measured.
Show the arithmetic›what each calculated value is worked out from
- Blood Urea Nitrogen= Blood Urea ÷ 2.14
- GFR Category= Banding of the eGFR value
- eGFR= CKD-EPI equation on creatinine, age and sex
- Bilirubin Indirect= Total Bilirubin − Direct Bilirubin
- A/G Ratio= Albumin ÷ Globulin
- Globulin= Total Protein − Albumin
- SGOT/SGPT Ratio= SGOT ÷ SGPT
- BUN / Creatinine Ratio= Blood Urea Nitrogen ÷ Creatinine
- Estimated Average Glucose= (28.7 × HbA1c) − 46.7
- Non-HDL Cholesterol= Total Cholesterol − HDL
- VLDL Cholesterol= Triglycerides ÷ 5
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, Bilirubin Indirect needs nothing beyond Bilirubin Total and Bilirubin Direct, both already measured.
