About this treatment
This lead blood test helps identify signs of significant lead exposure. Lead is a toxic metal found naturally in air, water, soil and in many consumer products. Individuals may have low levels of lead in their blood from these exposures. However, high levels of lead may indicate significant exposure in your home, workplace, or environment. Lead’s toxicity can result in damage to the brain, organs, and nervous system (ie lead poisoning).
