A comprehensive self-pay bone metabolism panel at the Zlín poliklinika collection point. It combines minerals (calcium, phosphate), bone-formation and bone-resorption markers (osteocalcin, P1NP, CTx, bone ALP), parathyroid hormone and 25-OH vitamin D, with urine minerals, to assess bone turnover and osteoporosis risk. No referral required; payment at the draw.
About this treatment
Bone is constantly being broken down and rebuilt, and an imbalance in this turnover underlies osteoporosis. Vaše laboratoře offers a comprehensive self-pay 'Kostní metabolismus' panel that goes well beyond a basic calcium check.
Markers included
- Calcium and phosphate — the key bone minerals.
- ALP and bone-specific ALP (ostease) — enzymes reflecting bone-building activity.
- Osteocalcin and P1NP — markers of bone formation.
- CTx (CrossLaps) — a marker of bone resorption (breakdown).
Good to know
- Panel
- Kostní metabolismus — 10+ markers + urine
- Covers

- Preparation
- Fasting advised; urine sample taken
Who is this for?
Osteoporosis risk assessment, monitoring bone-turnover treatment, peri- and post-menopausal bone health, family history of fractures
Preparation required
