LEAD
What does LEAD measure?
This test measures the level of lead in the body. Lead is a toxic metal that can enter the body through environmental, occupational, or household exposure. The test may be used to assess possible lead exposure, monitor known exposure, or support evaluation of health concerns where lead toxicity is considered. Results are interpreted together with exposure history, symptoms, and other clinical information.
