Strontium, Serum or Plasma

This test measures the level of strontium, a trace metal chemically similar to calcium, in your blood. It is useful for monitoring individuals who may have been exposed to high amounts of strontium through industrial work or specific supplements. Knowing this level helps rule out strontium toxicity as a cause for symptoms affecting the bones or kidneys. However, a high result does not identify the exact source of exposure or diagnose specific bone diseases on its own.
