The serum calcitonin test measures the levels of this hormone produced by the thyroid gland. It is essential for the diagnosis and monitoring of thyroid diseases, including medullary thyroid carcinoma. We use the Chemiluminescence (C.M.I.A.) technique to ensure accurate and reliable results. This test is crucial for patients with symptoms of thyroid disorders or those undergoing treatment who require detailed monitoring of their hormone levels.
Fasting is not required before this test. Please inform our staff about any treatments you are currently undergoing, especially if they include thyroid medications.
