Phosphate Test

The Phosphate Test at Marylebone Diagnostic Centre measures the level of phosphate in your urine. Phosphate is an essential mineral involved in the formation of bones and teeth and plays a crucial role in how the body uses energy. This test is often used to monitor kidney function or detect conditions that affect phosphate levels, such as bone disorders or malnutrition.
