The Calcium, Serum test measures the amount of calcium present in your blood. Calcium is one of the most important minerals in the body and plays a vital role in maintaining strong bones and teeth, supporting muscle contraction, enabling nerve signaling, and helping blood clot properly. Abnormal calcium levels may indicate bone disorders, kidney disease, parathyroid gland dysfunction, vitamin D imbalance, or other metabolic conditions. This test is commonly used as part of routine health screenings and to investigate symptoms related to calcium imbalance.
