Important:
Due to a supply chain issue, the Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory at Michigan State University cannot measure the parathyroid hormone-related protein (PTHrP) portion of the Malignancy Panel (iCa, PTH, PTHrP). PTHrP testing is unavailable while MSU works to validate a new assay. Samples will be submitted to MSU for PTH/ionized Calcium. Until further notice, for future requests, please order S16595 (US) or CS16595 (Canada).
Ionized Calcium (iCa), Parathyroid Hormone (PTH), and Parathormone Related Protein (PTHrp).
Evaluation of the ionized fraction of calcium concurrent with parathyroid hormone and parathyroid hormone related protein.
Results from this test will include interpretive comments provided by MSU’s Veterinary Diagnostic Lab Endocrinology Service. Their $15 interpretation fee will be added.
