What's included
5 deliverables in this treatment
- Physician-requested test selection matched to clinical need
- Complete blood count (CBC) — red cells, white cells, platelets
- Thyroid panel — TSH (with free T4 / free T3 where indicated)
- Lipid profile — total, LDL, HDL cholesterol and triglycerides
- Results interpreted by the ordering physician
Diagnostic blood testing supports the physicians at Poliklinika Kounicova in confirming diagnoses and monitoring treatment. Panels are requested by the GP or specialist according to clinical need and commonly include a complete blood count (CBC) to assess red cells, white cells and platelets, a thyroid panel (TSH with free T4 and free T3) to check thyroid function, and a lipid profile (total, LDL and HDL cholesterol and triglycerides) for cardiovascular risk. Testing is funded by Czech public health insurance when ordered by a doctor. Important: the polyclinic's own blood-draw room is currently not in operation, so the sample is taken at an associated collection point arranged by the clinic.
About this treatment
Diagnostic blood testing at Poliklinika Kounicova is physician-led rather than an open self-order menu: a GP or specialist requests the specific tests needed to investigate symptoms, confirm a diagnosis or monitor an existing condition, and the results feed directly back into that doctor's management plan. Because the on-site blood-draw room (odběrová místnost) is currently not in operation, the actual venous sample is collected at an associated…
The panels most frequently ordered cover the common diagnostic questions in primary and internal-medicine care. A complete blood count (CBC) measures haemoglobin, red-cell indices, the white-cell count and differential, and platelets, helping to detect anaemia, infection, inflammation or blood disorders. A thyroid panel built around thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), with free thyroxine (free T4) and free triiodothyronine (free T3) added when indicated,…
This service suits patients who have been referred for blood work as part of a preventive check, a specialist assessment or the monitoring of a chronic condition such as thyroid disease, raised cholesterol or anaemia. Preparation depends on the panel: a lipid profile and glucose generally need a 10–12 hour fast, while many other tests do not, so the requesting doctor or reception will give specific instructions. Results are interpreted by the ordering…

Panel categories
Biomarkers tested
4Often called 'good' cholesterol, HDL carries cholesterol away from arteries back to the liver for removal. Higher HDL levels are protective against heart disease. Exercise, healthy fats, and moderate alcohol intake can raise HDL.
Often called 'bad' cholesterol, LDL deposits cholesterol in artery walls, contributing to plaque buildup and atherosclerosis. LDL is the primary target for cardiovascular risk reduction through diet, exercise, and medication.
The combined measure of all cholesterol in your blood, including HDL, LDL, and VLDL. While useful as an overview, the breakdown between HDL and LDL is more clinically meaningful for assessing cardiovascular risk.
The most common type of fat in the body, stored for energy. Elevated triglycerides — often from excess sugar, alcohol, or calories — increase cardiovascular risk and can cause pancreatitis at very high levels.

Covered by Czech public health insurance when requested by a physician — no self-pay price is published. Note: the Kounicova on-site blood-draw room (odběrová místnost) is currently not in operation, so sampling is arranged through an associated collection point; reception (+420 544 528 101) advises where. Self-pay testing is quoted per case.
