The Calcium/Creatinine Ratio Test measures the ratio of calcium to creatinine in the urine. This test helps evaluate how effectively the kidneys are filtering and excreting calcium.
Why is the Calcium/Creatinine Ratio Test Important?
- Kidney Function: Helps assess kidney health and their ability to regulate calcium levels.
- Bone Health: Provides insights into calcium metabolism, which is crucial for bone strength.
- Monitoring Treatments: Used to monitor conditions affecting calcium balance, such as hyperparathyroidism or kidney disease.
When Should You Get a Calcium/Creatinine Ratio Test?
- Kidney Disease: Especially if there are concerns about kidney function or calcium levels.
- Hyperparathyroidism: To monitor the effects of overactive parathyroid glands on calcium levels.
- Osteoporosis: To assess calcium excretion and bone health.
- Monitoring Medications: Particularly if taking medications that affect calcium metabolism.
