Test Overview & Methodology
The Vitamin D 1,25-Dihydroxy (Calcitriol) Test quantifies the biologically active steroid hormone that regulates calcium absorption and bone metabolism. It is essential for distinguishing parathyroid, renal, and granulomatous disorders when total vitamin D levels are misleading. Our CLIA (Chemiluminescent Immunoassay) method provides rapid, accurate results with optional LC-MS/MS reflex confirmation.
| Feature | Our 1,25-Dihydroxy Test | Closest Alternative |
|---|---|---|
| Precision | 99.9% diagnostic sensitivity via CLIA, cross-validated with LC-MS/MS on demand | Standard ELISA may miss low-level fluctuations; no reflex confirmation |
| Method & Turnaround | CLIA (Chemiluminescent Immunoassay) – same-day report if sample received by 11 AM | Batch-based immunoassay; 2-3 working days |
| Logistics | Cold-chain home collection, 8 AM–11 PM; pre-labeled SST, refrigerated transport | Self-arranged transport; potential temperature excursions |
Physician Insight & Safety Protocols
“As a general practitioner, I recommend interpreting 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D results alongside serum calcium, PTH, and renal function. An isolated value may be misleading. Never adjust prescribed vitamin D analogues, calcium supplements, or calcimimetics without your clinician’s approval. If you develop confusion, muscle weakness, or palpitations, seek immediate medical evaluation.”
