Health check

Blood marker analysis provides a detailed insight into the body's functional state and can identify imbalances, deficiencies or signs of disease, often before symptoms occur. We offer a wide range of analyses, covering everything from general health parameters to more specific diagnostic markers.

Examples include:

• Hemoglobin and ferritin, which are used to assess iron status and possible anemia.
• TSH, T3 and T4, to assess thyroid function.
• HbA1c and glucose, which are central to screening for diabetes and insulin resistance.
• Cholesterol, HDL, LDL and triglycerides, for assessing cardiovascular risk.
• Vitamin D, B12 and folate, which are often tested for fatigue, decreased immune function or neurological symptoms.
• Liver and kidney values ​​such as ALT, creatinine and albumin to assess organ function.
• Inflammatory markers such as CRP and leukocytes, which may indicate infection or chronic inflammation.
• Testosterone, FSH and LH, for hormonal disorders in men and women.

Measuring systolic and diastolic blood pressure and resting heart rate provides important insight into the state of the circulatory system. High blood pressure is one of the most common and underdiagnosed risk factors for cardiovascular disease. The examination is recommended for all adults as a basic preventive measurement.

Body composition analysis, including fat mass and muscle mass, provides a more accurate picture of health status than weight alone. Body fat percentage measurement is particularly relevant when monitoring weight loss, metabolic diseases or exercise regimens.

Measuring oxygen saturation (SpO2) via pulse oximeter indicates how effectively the body is oxygenated. Low oxygen saturation may be a sign of impaired lung function, sleep-related breathing disorders or circulatory problems. The study is non-invasive and suitable as a screening tool.

CT, MRI, DEXA and echocardiography are advanced imaging methods used to visualize the body's internal structures and assess the functions of organs and tissues. The choice of examination depends on the symptom picture, clinical suspicion and need for clarification.

• CT scan (Computed tomography)
  CT is used to create detailed cross-sectional images of the body using X-rays. It is often used to detect changes in the lungs, brain, organs and bones – for example, when cancer, blood clots, internal bleeding or foci of infection are suspected.

• MRI scan (Magnetic Resonance)
  MRI uses a strong magnetic field and radio waves to create images of soft tissues and organs. It is particularly suitable for assessing the brain, spine, joints, muscles and certain organ changes. MRI does not use ionizing radiation and is frequently used for neurological or orthopedic problems.

• DEXA scan (Bone mineral density)
  DEXA is an accurate measurement of bone mineral density and is primarily used to diagnose osteoporosis (brittle bones). The scan is important in assessing fracture risk, especially in postmenopausal women, the elderly, or people with risk factors for bone loss.

• Echocardiography (Ultrasound of the heart)
  Echocardiography uses ultrasound to assess the structure and pumping function of the heart. The examination is essential for symptoms such as shortness of breath, chest pain, palpitations, or suspicion of heart failure, valvular disease, or congenital heart defects.
