Gold, Serum or Plasma

This test measures the amount of gold circulating in your blood. It is primarily used to monitor patients taking gold-based medications for rheumatoid arthritis to ensure the dosage is safe and effective. This measurement helps determine if symptoms like skin rashes or kidney issues are caused by gold toxicity. However, this test cannot diagnose arthritis or identify the specific source of environmental gold exposure on its own.
