What is Ferritin Test?
The ferritin test measures the level of ferritin, a protein that stores iron in the body. It helps assess iron levels and diagnose conditions like iron deficiency anemia or iron overload.
What is Ferritin Report Format?
A ferritin report presents the measured ferritin level in the blood, typically in nanograms per milliliter (ng/mL), along with the reference range for comparison.
Tests Included in Ferritin Report
Test | Description |
Ferritin | Measures the ferritin level to evaluate iron stores in the body. |
Key Parts of a Ferritin Report
Key Part | Description |
Ferritin Level | The amount of ferritin in the blood, typically measured in ng/mL. |
Normal Range | The reference range for ferritin to determine if the level is normal. |
Normal Range for Ferritin Report
Test | Normal Range |
Ferritin | 20 – 500 ng/mL (varies by age and sex) |
Parameters to Consider in Ferritin Report
Parameter | Interpretation |
Ferritin Level | High levels may suggest iron overload conditions like hemochromatosis, while low levels typically indicate iron deficiency anemia. |
Guidelines for Ferritin Report Format
Guideline | Description |
Test Results | Show the ferritin level in ng/mL. |
Interpretation | Provide context on whether the level is within normal limits or suggests an iron-related disorder. |
What Do the Results Mean?
Result Type | Interpretation |
High Ferritin | Elevated levels may indicate iron overload, liver disease, or inflammation. |
Low Ferritin | Low levels suggest iron deficiency anemia or inadequate iron stores in the body. |
Ferritin Report Interpretation
Test | Interpretation |
Ferritin | High ferritin levels can indicate iron overload, while low levels typically point to iron deficiency anemia. |
