What does Calcium -Serum measure?
This test measures the level of calcium in the blood. Calcium is important for bone health, muscle movement, nerve signaling, and normal heart function. A healthcare professional may order it to help evaluate symptoms or conditions related to abnormal calcium balance, including bone, kidney, parathyroid, or vitamin D concerns. Results are interpreted along with medical history, symptoms, and other laboratory tests.
