ESR – erythrocyte sedimentation rate, a criterion in a complete blood count (CBC). Blood samples with anticoagulant are placed in a tube, where red blood cells gradually settle, forming an upper plasma layer.
Cytological investigation of material is one of many morphological analysis methods to determine the absence or presence of malignant or benign neoplasms and non-tumorous lesions.
This test accurately diagnoses cancer of the unpaired smooth muscle hollow organ where an embryo develops, including pathologies and tumors. Cytological investigation is used in gynecology.
Modern transfusion immunology is based on data about 10 major erythrocyte antigen systems. Most are “minor” factors, potentially dangerous due to sensitization capabilities, with the Kell (K) antigen being the most relevant and clinically significant. Its high immunogenicity causes posttransfusion
Blood clotting (hemostasis) – a protective bodily reaction. When blood vessels are injured, clotting occurs, forming a thrombus that seals the wound and prevents further bleeding.
The CMV IgG avidity test determines the stages and forms of cytomegalovirus in the body. Avidity is the binding strength between viral infection components and their antibodies.
This substance, an acute-phase protein, indicates adverse tissue changes during necrosis, injuries, or inflammation.
The CMV IgM test detects the presence of class M immunoglobulins against the cytomegalovirus infection agent in the body.
CMV IgG Test – A diagnostic method for cytomegalovirus (a herpesvirus infection) by detecting class G antibodies.
This substance, an acute-phase protein, is an indicator of tissue deterioration in necrosis, inflammation, or trauma.
