Protein Electrophoresis With Interpretation, Serum With Reflex to IFE, Serum, and Free κ and λ Light Chains, Serum

This test measures specific proteins in your blood, including antibodies and light chains, to check for abnormal patterns. It helps show whether your body is producing irregular proteins often associated with bone marrow or immune system disorders. Doctors use this information to screen for conditions like multiple myeloma or related plasma cell diseases. However, this test alone cannot confirm a specific diagnosis or determine the exact cause of the abnormal proteins without further medical evaluation.
