Deep-Vein Thrombosis
Our Deep-Vein Thrombosis test uses the detection of a specific biomarker to indicate whether there are blockages or blood clots in the deep veins. The results may give you an indication of whether you are at risk. Click below to view the full spectrum of tests included.
What's Included?
D-Dimer: Deep-vein thrombosis is a common condition, with a lifetime cumulative incidence of 2 to 5 percent. Untreated deep-vein thrombosis can result in pulmonary embolism, a potentially fatal outcome. D-Dimer is a marker of endogenous fibrinolysis and should therefore be detectable in patients with deep-vein thrombosis. The test is used as an aid in the assessment and evaluation of patients suspected of deep-vein thrombosis or pulmonary embolism.
