What Is a Heavy Metal Test Used For?
A heavy metal test measures toxic and trace elements in blood or urine. Heavy metal testing is used to investigate possible exposure through drinking water, food, medicines, supplements, workplace materials, or the environment.
Both Thyrocare panels use inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) for element analysis.
Which Elements Are Included in Each Panel?
- Included in both panels (9 elements): Arsenic, barium, cadmium, cobalt, chromium, cesium, mercury, lead, and selenium.
- Additional elements in the blood panel (13 elements): Aluminum, antimony, beryllium, bismuth, manganese, molybdenum, nickel, silver, strontium, thallium, tin, uranium, and vanadium.
- Additional element in the urine panel: Lithium.
Blood or Urine: Which Heavy Metal Test Is Appropriate?
A blood test for heavy metals measures elements circulating in the blood. Urine testing measures elements excreted in urine. The appropriate sample depends on the metal, the timing and source of exposure, and the clinical reason for testing.
