Service Providers for Erythropoietin(EPO)
Erythropoietin (EPO) is a hormone produced by the kidneys that stimulates red blood cell production in the bone marrow. An EPO test measures its levels in the blood to evaluate conditions like anemia, polycythemia, or kidney disorders. Low levels may indicate chronic kidney disease or bone marrow suppression, while high levels can be seen in response to anemia or in certain cancers. Results guide diagnosis and treatment.
