THALLIUM
What does THALLIUM measure?
This test measures thallium, a toxic heavy metal, in the body. It may be ordered when thallium exposure or poisoning is suspected, such as after possible contact with contaminated materials or unexplained symptoms affecting the digestive system, nerves, skin, or hair. Results may help healthcare professionals assess the likelihood and extent of recent or ongoing exposure. Interpretation depends on symptoms, exposure history, and other clinical findings.
