AIA - Serum Uric Acid

The AIA - Serum Uric Acid test measures the concentration of uric acid in blood. The test is typically done as part of a routine blood test or to diagnose and monitor conditions related to high or low uric acid levels, such as gout, kidney stones, and other kidney diseases. It can also be used to monitor uric acid levels in people undergoing cancer treatments, like chemotherapy or radiotherapy. Uric acid is a nitrogenous waste product that forms when the body breaks down purines, substances found naturally in the body, and certain foods. A Uric Acid test measures the uric acid levels in the blood and provides valuable information about these health conditions.
