Results for tag: "Parathyroid Hormone Test"

The Parathyroid Hormone Test (PTH) is a type of in vitro diagnostic test used to measure the amount of parathyroid hormone in the blood. It is used to diagnose and monitor conditions such as hyperparathyroidism, hypoparathyroidism, and other disorders of calcium metabolism. The test is also used to monitor the effectiveness of treatments for these conditions. The PTH test is typically performed in a laboratory setting, using a sample of blood taken from the patient. The PTH test market is a subset of the larger in vitro diagnostics market, which is estimated to be worth billions of dollars. The PTH test market is expected to grow in the coming years due to the increasing prevalence of conditions such as hyperparathyroidism and hypoparathyroidism. Some of the major companies in the PTH test market include Abbott Laboratories, Siemens Healthineers, Roche Diagnostics, and Beckman Coulter. These companies offer a range of PTH tests, including automated and manual tests, as well as point-of-care tests. Show Less Read more
