Bone Profile
£41.00
The Bone Profile (SP5) is a comprehensive blood test designed to assess bone health, mineral balance, and key metabolic functions. This profile measures essential markers including calcium, phosphate, proteins, and kidney function indicators to help evaluate skeletal strength, nutritional status, and conditions that may affect bone metabolism. Ideal for monitoring bone health, investigating mineral imbalances, or supporting osteoporosis risk assessment, this test is available at Medical Diagnosis Victoria (MDX Victoria) in London, with results typically available within 4 hours.
Bone Profile
This profile (SP5) helps evaluate the health of your bones and related metabolic functions. It measures proteins in your blood, including total protein, albumin, and globulin, which reflect overall nutritional and liver health. Alongside essential minerals and kidney function markers, it provides a comprehensive view of your skeletal and metabolic strength.

What Is Included?
This profile provides a comprehensive evaluation of markers associated with bone integrity, nutritional proteins, and metabolic function.
Calcium & Phosphates
Evaluates essential minerals crucial for maintaining bone strength, normal cellular function, and structural integrity.
Monitoring bone density risk, muscle function parameters, and vital mineral retention.
Proteins & Enzymes
Reflects nutritional status, liver health, and enzymatic activity linked to bone formation.
Assessing active bone formation rates, nutritional absorption, and liver function status.
Kidney & Electrolytes
Provides information about kidney filtration and the balance of essential minerals in your bloodstream.
Evaluating kidney waste filtration and metabolic mineral homeostasis.
Understanding Bone and Metabolic Markers
Calcium and Alkaline Phosphatase (ALP) are key indicators used to evaluate bone turnover and cellular health. When assessed alongside kidney markers like urea and creatinine, they provide a clearer picture of how your body processes, filters, and retains essential minerals needed for skeletal strength.
How To Read Your Laboratory Results
Your results will list your values alongside standard reference ranges. If a result falls outside the range, it is noted for review. Important: A single out-of-range value does not automatically indicate a medical problem. Results must be assessed in conjunction with your medical history and clinical examination.
Results Timeline: Profile metrics are typically available within 4 hours. Once your results are ready, they will be securely shared with you.
