Overview

The 24 HRS URINE COPPER test is a specialized diagnostic procedure that measures the amount of copper excreted in urine over a 24-hour period. This test helps assess copper metabolism in the body, vital for diagnosing conditions like Wilson’s disease and other copper-related disorders. At Diagnopein in Nanded, this test is performed with precision to ensure accurate results that guide effective treatment.

Why is the 24 HRS URINE COPPER Test Important?

Copper plays a critical role in various bodily functions, including brain health, liver function, and enzyme activity. However, excessive copper accumulation can cause severe health problems, especially in the liver and brain. The 24 HRS URINE COPPER test helps detect abnormal copper levels, enabling early diagnosis of liver disease, Wilson’s disease, or copper toxicity.

Early detection through this test supports timely intervention, improving patient outcomes and preventing complications. It’s an essential test for patients showing symptoms like jaundice, neurological disturbances, or abnormal liver function tests.
