What is the Calcium Test?
The Serum Calcium test measures the total amount of calcium in your blood. Calcium is essential for strong bones and teeth and for the proper working of muscles, nerves and the heart.
Blood calcium is tightly controlled by vitamin D and the parathyroid glands, so abnormal results can point to vitamin D deficiency, parathyroid problems, kidney disease or bone disease.
What it measures: Total calcium (bound and free) in the blood.
