Multiple Myeloma, Diagnostic Panel-2 near me in Noida

The Protein Electrophoresis, Serum test measures the concentration and distribution of specific proteins (like albumin, alpha globulins, beta globulins, and gamma globulins) in the blood. Each of these plays a vital role in bodily functions. This test aids in the detection of abnormal proteins, particularly monoclonal (M) proteins. The presence of M proteins may indicate plasma cell disorders such as multiple myeloma (a blood cancer that affects plasma cells in the bone marrow). Also, this test helps diagnose and monitor various blood disorders.

The Beta-2 Microglobulin, Serum test measures the concentration of beta-2-microglobulin in the blood. B2M levels provide insight into both cellular activity and how effectively the kidneys are clearing proteins from the blood. High levels may indicate advanced stages of multiple myeloma, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, kidney disease, or other disorders affecting the immune system. Elevated B2M levels are often associated with poorer prognosis and can guide more aggressive treatment strategies. Low or normal levels typically indicate healthy kidney function and no significant increase in cell turnover from malignancy or immune activation.

By measuring serum B2M, doctors can evaluate disease progression, monitor treatment response, and support diagnosis and prognosis planning for blood cancers and related disorders.
