Three values on this report move with how hard your body worked before the draw. Creatinine is a breakdown product of muscle metabolism, uric acid behaves the same way, and strenuous activity raises CRP as well — so the usual instruction to avoid strenuous exercise for 24 hours, written for someone who can skip a gym session, does not work if the job is lifting, loading or machine work. Give the sample after your longest gap from it, and say what the work involves. Beyond that, this package is the Advanced Full Body Checkup for Men plus exactly three pancreatic tests — Amylase - Serum, Lipase - Serum and CA19.9 - Pancreatic Cancer Marker. The other 94 parameters are identical: CBC with ESR, Blood Picture - Peripheral Smear Examination read by a pathologist, Liver and Kidney Function, a 9-marker Lipid Profile, Complete Urine Analysis, Blood Glucose Fasting, HbA1c, Thyroid Profile, Iron Studies, Vitamin D (25-Hydroxy), Vitamin B12, RA Factor, CRP, Testosterone Total, PSA and CEA. The tumour markers here are screening aids a doctor reads alongside symptoms and imaging: a raised value has many non-cancerous causes, and a normal value does not exclude cancer. Processed at a NABL-accredited laboratory. From 2500. Free home collection across Faridabad — NIT 1, NIT 3, Sector 15, Sector 21, Old Faridabad, Ballabgarh, Neharpar and Sainik Colony.

What Does This Package Screen For?

At a Glance

Package: Comprehensive Health Checkup for Men. Tests: 97 parameters, 20 components. Price: From 2500. Fasting: 10 hours. Sample: Blood and urine, single draw. Reports: 24 hours, digital. Home collection: Free across Faridabad. Lab: NABL-accredited. The honest description: this is the Advanced Full Body Checkup for Men plus exactly three tests — Amylase - Serum, Lipase- Serum and CA19.9 - Pancreatic Cancer Marker, all pancreatic. The other 94 parameters are identical, so with nothing pointing at the pancreas, the Advanced version covers the rest for less. The CRP in both is qualitative — positive or negative, no figure; for a trackable number in mg/L the Comprehensive Full Body Checkup with CRP & RA Factor reports it quantitatively and costs less than either. ## If Your Work Is Physical, Read the Kidney Function Test Carefully Three values here move with how hard your body worked in the day or two before the draw. Creatinine is a breakdown product of muscle metabolism and sustained exertion raises it transiently; uric acid rises the same way; and strenuous activity raises CRP too. The standard 24-hour no-strenuous-exercise instruction assumes a gym session you can skip. If your work is lifting, loading or machine work, you cannot skip it, and a creatinine or uric acid flagged high on a Monday report may be describing Saturday's shift rather than your kidneys. So give the sample after your longest gap from physical work, and tell your doctor what it involves and when you last worked a full shift. The Kidney Function Test reports 12 parameters including creatinine, urea, eGFR and uric acid, and gout is a genuine finding in its own right: a high uric acid is not automatically an artefact, just a number needing its context recorded. Testosterone Total adds its own timing problem: it peaks early and is drawn between 7 and 10 AM, inside your working day if the shift starts at six, so take a home slot before you leave or on a day off. ## The Three Pancreatic Additions Amylase - Serum and Lipase- Serum are pancreatic digestive enzymes that rise when the pancreas inflames; Lipase is more pancreas-specific and stays raised longer. They are the standard blood tests for acute pancreatitis, which is a same-day hospital matter rather than a routine report. CA19.9 - Pancreatic Cancer Marker is a tumour marker: a screening aid a doctor interprets alongside symptoms and imaging, never alone. It is commonly raised in benign biliary and pancreatic conditions — gallstones, bile duct obstruction, cholangitis, chronic pancreatitis, cirrhosis — and by jaundice. It also has a hard limit: the 5 to 10% of people who are Lewis-antigen negative cannot produce it at all, so their value stays undetectable even with cancer present. A normal value does not exclude cancer; a raised one does not confirm it. Prostate Specific Antigen - PSA (Total) and Carcino Embryonic Antigen (CEA) read the same way — PSA rises with benign prostatic hyperplasia, prostatitis and recent cycling or ejaculation, CEA runs higher in smokers, and colonoscopy screens for bowel cancer. ## Blood Picture - Peripheral Smear Examination Ninety-six of these parameters are numbers; one finding is a sentence written by a person. This profile reports Red Blood Cells, White Blood Cells, Platelets, Hemoparasites and a written Impression — a qualified pathologist's own words on what the slide showed. No analyser produces it, so the cost is pathologist time — the line item dropped to hold a price point. The Impression is where the CBC gets explained. Low haemoglobin with small pale cells means iron deficiency; large cells mean B12 or folate deficiency; sickle-shaped cells mean sickle cell disease. The pathologist also records blast cells suggesting leukaemia and clumped platelets an analyser returns as a dangerously low count. Hemoparasites looks for malarial parasites, endemic alongside dengue in Delhi NCR. ## The Other 13 Components CBC with ESR (21): anaemia, infection, inflammation. Liver Function Test (12): SGOT, SGPT, GGT; NAFLD affects 30–40% of urban Indian adults (Duseja et al., 2022). Lipid Profile (9): Non-HDL cholesterol beats LDL alone (AHA/ACC, 2018); very high triglycerides cause pancreatitis. Complete Urine Analysis (17): protein, glucose, infection — not microalbuminuria, which needs a separate ACR test. Blood Glucose Fasting (1) and HbA1c (2): under 100 mg/dL normal, 100–125 prediabetes, 126+ diabetes (ADA, 2024); anaemia distorts HbA1c, so read it with the CBC. Thyroid Profile (3): TT3, TT4, TSH; one in ten Indian adults is hypothyroid (Unnikrishnan et al., IJEM, 2013). Iron Studies (5): iron deficiency versus chronic-disease anaemia; thalassemia trait needs Hb electrophoresis. Vitamin B12 (1): 47–70% of Indians deficient (Yajnik et al., JAPI, 2006). Vitamin D (25-Hydroxy) (1): deficiency 40% to over 90% (Ritu & Gupta, IJCM, 2014). RA Factor (1): positive in only 70–80% of rheumatoid arthritis; a negative does not exclude it, anti-CCP being more specific. CRP (1): qualitative — present or absent, not hs-CRP. ## Sources Unnikrishnan et al., IJEM, 2013;17(4):647–652 · Yajnik et al., JAPI, 2006;54:775–782 · Ritu & Gupta, IJCM, 2014;39(4):178–184 · ADA, 2024 · AHA/ACC, 2018 · Duseja et al., Indian J Gastroenterol, 2022 Content last reviewed: October 2026

Who Should Get This Checkup?

  • Men whose work is physically demanding, and whose creatinine or uric acid has been flagged before – Sustained physical exertion transiently raises creatinine, uric acid and CRP, so a report taken the morning after a hard shift can read high without anything being wrong with the kidneys. This package measures all three, and the Kidney Function Test reports 12 parameters including creatinine, urea, eGFR and uric acid. Give the sample after your longest gap from physical work, tell your doctor what the work involves, and treat a borderline value as something to repeat after real rest.
  • Men on early industrial shift starts – Testosterone Total peaks in the early morning and is conventionally drawn between 7 and 10 AM, which is a problem if your shift begins at six — the window falls inside your working day. A home collection slot before you leave, or on a day off, keeps the value interpretable. TSH follows a daily rhythm too, and one in ten Indian adults is hypothyroid (Unnikrishnan AG, et al., Indian Journal of Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2013;17(4):647–652).
  • Men who drink regularly, or have had gallstones – Alcohol and gallstones account for most pancreatitis, and this is the package that measures Amylase - Serum and Lipase - Serum. It also carries the liver markers that belong beside them: GGT, the earliest marker of alcohol-related liver injury, with SGOT and SGPT. NAFLD affects 30 to 40% of urban Indian adults (Duseja A, et al., Indian Journal of Gastroenterology, 2022), and fatty liver and alcohol often appear in the same report.
  • Men over 45 in the NIT sectors and Old Faridabad taking an annual screen – In the older established parts of the city the annual checkup is often the only contact with a laboratory, which makes breadth worth paying for. Fasting glucose under 100 mg/dL is normal, 100 to 125 is prediabetes and 126 or above is diabetes (ADA Standards of Care in Diabetes, 2024). Prostate Specific Antigen - PSA (Total) is the standard blood screen in this age band and a starting point rather than a verdict: a raised value means a urology appointment, not a diagnosis.
  • Men with recurring upper abdominal discomfort – Persistent pain high in the abdomen, discomfort after oily food, or pain boring through to the back are what Amylase and Lipase get ordered for. Two limits matter. Severe acute pain with vomiting is an emergency for a hospital the same day, not a home checkup. And mild symptoms with normal enzymes still need a doctor, usually with an abdominal ultrasound, which no blood test replaces.
  • Men with no pancreatic reason to test — read this before booking – Three tests separate this package from the Advanced Full Body Checkup for Men: Amylase, Lipase and CA19.9, all pancreatic. Every other parameter is the same 94. With no heavy drinking, no gallstones, no upper abdominal symptoms and no very high triglycerides, the Advanced version is the identical screen for less. And if a trackable CRP figure matters more to you, the Comprehensive Full Body Checkup with CRP & RA Factor reports CRP in mg/L and costs less than either.

How to Prepare

Fasting: 10 hours, needed for the Lipid Profile and Blood Glucose Fasting. Plain water is allowed and helps — a hydrated vein is an easier draw. No tea, coffee, juice or milk. Physical work — read this before anything else. Sustained physical exertion raises creatinine, uric acid and CRP transiently. The usual "no strenuous exercise for 24 hours" instruction assumes a gym session you can skip; if your job is lifting, loading or machine work, you cannot. So book the sample after your longest gap from physical work — a rest day, or the morning after one — and state at booking what the work involves and when you last did a full shift, so it reaches the laboratory with the sample. Timing: a 7 to 10 AM slot. Testosterone peaks in the early morning and falls through the day, so a late sample can read falsely low. If your shift starts at six, take the earliest home slot before you leave, or book on a day off. Alcohol: none for 72 hours if you can manage it, 48 at minimum. Alcohol affects GGT, liver enzymes, triglycerides and glucose, and it can raise pancreatic enzymes. Before a PSA test: no ejaculation and no long-distance cycling for 48 hours. Mention any recent urinary catheter, prostate examination or urinary infection — each raises PSA. Samples: one venous blood draw and a midstream urine sample in the same visit. All 20 components run off that single collection. Medications: continue prescription medicines unless your doctor says otherwise. Stop biotin supplements 48 hours before, since biotin interferes with thyroid and hormone assays. Declare testosterone gels or injections, anabolic steroids, and any medicine that can raise amylase. If you are in pain right now: severe upper abdominal pain with vomiting is not a case for a home checkup. Go to a hospital — acute pancreatitis is diagnosed and treated the same day. Home collection: free across Faridabad — NIT 1, NIT 2, NIT 3, Sector 15, Sector 16, Sector 21, Sector 28, Sector 31, Sector 46, Old Faridabad, Ballabgarh, Neharpar, Sainik Colony and Dabua Colony, with the rest of the city on request. Reports: digital within 24 hours, all 97 parameters with reference ranges and flagged abnormals.

What Is Included — and What Is Not

Included: 97 parameters, 20 components 8 profiles: Complete Blood Count (CBC) with ESR (21), Complete Urine Analysis (17), Liver Function Test (12), Kidney Function Test (12), Lipid Profile (9), Blood Picture - Peripheral Smear Examination (5), Iron Studies with Serum Iron, TIBC, UIBC, Transferrin and % Saturation (5), Thyroid Profile with TT3, TT4 and TSH (3). 12 individual tests: HbA1c with average blood glucose (2), Blood Glucose Fasting (1), Vitamin B12 (1), Vitamin D (25-Hydroxy) (1), RA Factor (1), CRP qualitative (1), Testosterone Total (1), Prostate Specific Antigen - PSA (Total) (1), Carcino Embryonic Antigen (CEA) (1), CA19.9 - Pancreatic Cancer Marker (1), Amylase - Serum (1), Lipase - Serum (1). Sample: Blood and urine, single draw. Fasting: 10 hours. Reports: 24 hours. Gender: Male. Home collection: Free across Faridabad. ## Not included The CRP here is qualitative — positive or negative, with no number to follow across repeat tests. The Comprehensive Full Body Checkup with CRP & RA Factor reports CRP in mg/L and costs less. The RA Factor is reported qualitatively too. Also absent: free testosterone and SHBG, the usual follow-up to a low total testosterone; LH and FSH, which separate testicular from pituitary causes of low testosterone; creatine kinase, which is what a doctor uses when muscle breakdown rather than kidney function is the question behind a raised creatinine; a 24-hour urine creatinine clearance; an abdominal ultrasound or CT, which is how the pancreas and biliary tree are actually imaged; liver fibrosis assessment; hs-CRP for cardiac risk; anti-CCP for rheumatoid arthritis; urine microalbumin or albumin-creatinine ratio for early diabetic kidney damage; haemoglobin electrophoresis or HPLC for thalassemia trait; ferritin; AFP, CA125 or other tumour markers; cardiac markers such as Troponin or NT-proBNP; colonoscopy or a faecal immunochemical test, which are what screen for bowel cancer; dengue and malaria tests; and all imaging — no ECG, X-ray, ultrasound or MRI. The three tumour markers here — Prostate Specific Antigen - PSA (Total), Carcino Embryonic Antigen (CEA) and CA19.9 - Pancreatic Cancer Marker — are screening aids. None confirms or rules out cancer; that takes a doctor's assessment with imaging, and sometimes a biopsy. CA19.9 carries one further limit: 5 to 10% of people are Lewis-antigen negative and cannot produce it at all, so their value stays undetectable regardless of disease. ## Where to go from here With no pancreatic reason to test, the Advanced Full Body Checkup for Men at 94 parameters is this package minus Amylase, Lipase and CA19.9 and nothing else. For a trackable CRP figure, the Comprehensive Full Body Checkup with CRP & RA Factor at 91, open to all genders. For a woman in the household, the Comprehensive Health Checkup for Women at 99 is the matching tier, with Prolactin, FSH, Luteinising Hormone, CA125 and CEA in place of Testosterone and PSA.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about Comprehensive Health Checkup for Men in Faridabad

97 parameters across 20 components: Complete Blood Count (CBC) with ESR (21), Complete Urine Analysis (17), Liver Function Test (12), Kidney Function Test (12), Lipid Profile (9), Blood Picture - Peripheral Smear Examination (5), Iron Studies with Serum Iron, TIBC, UIBC, Transferrin and % Saturation (5), Thyroid Profile with TT3, TT4 and TSH (3), HbA1c with average blood glucose (2), Blood Glucose Fasting (1), Vitamin B12 (1), Vitamin D 25-Hydroxy (1), RA Factor (1), CRP qualitative (1), Testosterone Total (1), Prostate Specific Antigen - PSA (Total) (1), Carcino Embryonic Antigen (CEA) (1), CA19.9 - Pancreatic Cancer Marker (1), Amylase - Serum (1) and Lipase - Serum (1).

My job is physical. Will that change my creatinine and uric acid results?

It can. Creatinine is a breakdown product of muscle metabolism, and sustained physical exertion raises it transiently; uric acid rises the same way, and strenuous activity raises CRP as well. So a report drawn the morning after a hard shift can show a high creatinine or uric acid that reflects the work rather than the kidneys. Give the sample after your longest gap from physical work, tell your doctor what the work involves and when you last did a full shift, and expect a borderline value to be repeated after a genuine rest period before anything is concluded from it.

The instructions say no strenuous exercise for 24 hours, but my work is physical. What do I do?

That instruction is written for someone who can skip a gym session, and it does not transfer to work you cannot skip. The practical version is to book the draw after your longest gap from physical work — a rest day, or the first morning after one — and to state at booking what the work involves, so it reaches the laboratory with the sample. Do not stop a prescribed medicine or go without food for longer than the 10-hour fast to compensate. What matters is that the result is read with the work recorded beside it.

Does a high uric acid always mean the result is just from my work?

No, and that is the point of recording the context rather than dismissing the number. A persistently high uric acid causes gout, which presents as sudden severe pain and swelling in a joint, often the base of the big toe, and it is a genuine finding that needs treatment. Physical work can raise the value transiently on top of whatever your baseline is. The way to separate the two is a repeat sample taken after a real rest period, which your doctor will arrange if the first value is borderline or if you have had joint symptoms.

What does the Comprehensive Health Checkup for Men cost in Faridabad?

It starts from 2500 in Faridabad. Home sample collection and digital reports for all 97 parameters are included in that figure, with nothing added at checkout. Book online or on WhatsApp.

What exactly does this add over the Advanced Full Body Checkup for Men?

Three tests, and only three. This package holds everything in the Advanced Full Body Checkup for Men — all 94 parameters — plus Amylase - Serum, Lipase - Serum and CA19.9 - Pancreatic Cancer Marker, which takes it to 97 parameters across 20 components. All three concern the pancreas: Amylase and Lipase are pancreatic enzymes that screen for pancreatitis, and CA19.9 is a pancreatic tumour marker. Nothing else is different. With no pancreatic reason to test, the Advanced version covers the same ground for less.

Is this package worth the extra money?

Only if you need the pancreas tested, and we would rather you decided than be sold the larger number. Three tests separate the two: Amylase, Lipase and CA19.9. If you drink regularly, have had gallstones, get recurring upper abdominal discomfort or carry very high triglycerides, those three are relevant and this is the right choice. If none of that applies, the Advanced Full Body Checkup for Men gives you the identical 94 parameters for less.

My shift starts at 6 AM. How do I get the testosterone timing right?

Testosterone follows a daily rhythm that peaks in the early morning, so it is conventionally drawn between 7 and 10 AM — a window that falls inside your working day on an early shift. Two options work. Take the earliest home collection slot and give the sample before you leave, which also suits the 10-hour overnight fast. Or book on a day off, after your usual sleep, which has the added benefit of putting the longest possible gap between your last physical shift and the draw. Keep repeat tests at roughly the same hour so the values are comparable.

What do the Amylase and Lipase tests detect?

Both are digestive enzymes made by the pancreas, and both rise when it is inflamed. Lipase is the more pancreas-specific of the two and stays raised longer, which often makes it the more useful. They are the standard blood tests for acute pancreatitis, which presents as severe upper abdominal pain boring through to the back, usually with vomiting — an emergency for a hospital the same day, not a routine checkup. Amylase also rises with salivary gland disease, reduced kidney clearance and some medicines, so a mildly raised value in someone without symptoms often has a benign explanation such as macroamylasaemia.

Does a raised CA19.9 mean I have pancreatic cancer?

No. CA19.9 is a tumour marker, which makes it a screening aid a doctor interprets alongside your symptoms and imaging, never a result to read on its own. It is commonly raised in benign biliary and pancreatic conditions — gallstones, bile duct obstruction, cholangitis, chronic pancreatitis and cirrhosis — and jaundice from any cause pushes it up. Its established clinical use is monitoring pancreatic cancer already diagnosed, not finding it in people without symptoms. A normal value does not exclude pancreatic cancer and a raised value does not confirm it.

Can CA19.9 be normal in someone who has pancreatic cancer?

Yes, and in one group it is always undetectable. Between 5 and 10% of people are Lewis-antigen negative, meaning their body cannot produce CA19.9 at all, so their result stays undetectable whether or not disease is present. Beyond that, early pancreatic cancer frequently fails to raise the marker. A normal CA19.9 is therefore not an all-clear: persistent upper abdominal pain, unexplained weight loss, new diabetes or jaundice needs a doctor and imaging whatever the report says.

Are the three tumour markers here reliable for cancer screening?

They are screening aids, not diagnostic tests. PSA, CEA and CA19.9 all carry meaningful false-positive rates in people without symptoms, and all three can be normal when cancer is present. Each is interpreted by a doctor alongside your symptoms, a physical examination and, where indicated, imaging or endoscopy. Treat a raised result as a reason for a consultation rather than a diagnosis, and a normal result as one data point rather than reassurance.

Does a raised PSA mean I have prostate cancer?

No. Prostate Specific Antigen is produced by prostate tissue in general, not by cancer specifically. The usual non-cancerous explanations are benign prostatic hyperplasia, the age-related enlargement behind a weak stream and night-time urination, prostatitis, urinary infection, a recent catheter or prostate examination, and even recent cycling or ejaculation. A normal PSA equally does not exclude prostate cancer. A raised value means seeing a urologist, who may repeat it after treating an infection, examine the prostate, or order free-to-total PSA or MRI.

What does the CEA test detect?

Carcino Embryonic Antigen (CEA) is a protein used mainly to monitor colorectal cancer that has already been diagnosed, rather than to find it in people without symptoms. Smokers run higher baseline levels as a rule, and CEA also rises in inflammatory bowel disease, pancreatitis, cirrhosis and chronic lung disease. A normal CEA does not exclude bowel cancer. Colonoscopy, or a faecal immunochemical test, is what screens for colorectal cancer, and neither is part of this package.

Is the CRP in this package a number or just positive and negative?

Positive or negative. The CRP here is qualitative: it says whether inflammation is present and gives no value in mg/L, so it cannot be compared across repeat tests to show whether inflammation is rising or settling. The RA Factor is reported qualitatively too. If your doctor wants a trackable CRP number, the Comprehensive Full Body Checkup with CRP & RA Factor reports CRP quantitatively in mg/L and costs less than this package. Neither is hs-CRP, the high-sensitivity assay used for cardiovascular risk assessment.

What is the Blood Picture - Peripheral Smear Examination?

It is the one component here that ends in a sentence rather than a number. A qualified pathologist prepares a slide from your sample, reads it under a microscope and reports five findings: Red Blood Cells, White Blood Cells, Platelets, Hemoparasites and a written Impression in the pathologist's own words. A CBC can say haemoglobin is low; only the smear says the cells are small and pale, which points to iron deficiency, large, which points to B12 or folate deficiency, or sickle-shaped, which indicates sickle cell disease. It also detects blast cells that may indicate leukaemia and clumped platelets that an automated counter reports as a dangerously low platelet count.

Why is a Peripheral Smear missing from so many packages at this price?

Because it cannot be automated. Nineteen of the twenty components here are machine-run, but a smear needs a qualified pathologist to prepare and examine each slide by hand, and that is skilled manual time rather than machine time — so it is the line item quietly dropped when a package is built to a price. Across Delhi NCR the Hemoparasites finding is the practical reason to keep it: the slide is examined directly for malarial parasites inside red blood cells, and dengue, malaria and chikungunya circulate every monsoon. Check any package's test list for a Blood Picture or Peripheral Smear profile by name.

How long do I need to fast before this checkup?

10 hours. Plain water is allowed and encouraged; no tea, coffee, juice or milk during the fasting window. The fast is needed for the Lipid Profile and Blood Glucose Fasting; the hormones and tumour markers do not require it. Avoid alcohol for at least 48 hours, since it affects GGT, triglycerides, glucose and pancreatic enzymes. Stop biotin supplements 48 hours beforehand. Avoid ejaculation and long-distance cycling for 48 hours before a PSA test. Continue prescription medicines unless your doctor advises otherwise.

Which parts of Faridabad get free home sample collection?

Free home collection covers Faridabad, including NIT 1, NIT 2, NIT 3, NIT 5, Sector 15, Sector 16, Sector 21, Sector 28, Sector 31, Sector 37, Sector 46, Old Faridabad, Ballabgarh, Neharpar, Sainik Colony, Dabua Colony and Green Field Colony, with the rest of the city on request. A trained phlebotomist collects the blood and urine samples at your door in one visit, and the sample travels to the laboratory in temperature-controlled conditions. Early slots are available for anyone who leaves for a shift start.

Can I book this for my father, and is the laboratory NABL-accredited?

Yes to both. Add his details at booking and request a single slot if two people at the same address are testing; each person gets his own report. Home collection matters most for the family member for whom the trip to a collection centre is the obstacle. Your sample is processed at a NABL-accredited laboratory in our network. NABL accreditation is granted to individual laboratories after evaluation of their equipment, processes and personnel; it is not a company-wide certification, and HealthVas does not claim to hold it. Digital reports with all 97 parameters arrive within 24 hours.

Why Book on HealthVas?

The price on the page is the price you pay. Home sample collection and digital reports are not billed separately. Every sample is processed at a NABL-accredited laboratory in our network, and reports are issued on HealthVas letterhead. NABL accreditation (National Accreditation Board for Testing and Calibration Laboratories) is granted to individual laboratories after evaluation of their equipment, processes and personnel — it is not a company-wide certification, and HealthVas does not claim to hold it. One thing we put on the page that nobody else does: if your work is physical, three values here — creatinine, uric acid and CRP — can read high because of the work rather than because of disease. The honest instruction is not "skip the gym for 24 hours", which assumes a gym. It is to sample after your longest gap from physical work and to have the work recorded on the request, so your doctor reads the number with its context. We would also rather describe our own catalogue accurately than sell the largest number on it. This package is the Advanced Full Body Checkup for Men plus three pancreatic tests — Amylase, Lipase and CA19.9. With no pancreatic reason to test, the Advanced version is the same 94 parameters for less. The CRP in both is qualitative; if your doctor wants a CRP number to follow over time, the Comprehensive Full Body Checkup with CRP & RA Factor reports it in mg/L and costs less than either. The Blood Picture - Peripheral Smear Examination here is read by a qualified pathologist under a microscope rather than counted by an analyser, so the report carries a written Impression in a pathologist's own words. And the three tumour markers — PSA, CEA and CA19.9 — are published with their limits attached, because markers like these have real false-positive rates in people without symptoms and CA19.9 is undetectable in the 5 to 10% of people who are Lewis-antigen negative.
