Overview

A blood chemistry panel is a common test used to evaluate a variety of components that provide general information about the function of important organs in the body and it screens for a wide range of problems, including kidney, liver, heart, adrenal, endocrine and neuromuscular disorders by measuring the levels of important electrolytes and other chemicals like glucose, blood urea nitrogen, carbon dioxide and others. In order to interpret chemistry lab results it’s crucial to understand the guiding principles and concepts behind it.
