Hemoglobin G

The Thalassemia and Hemoglobinopathy Comprehensive Evaluation test is designed to diagnose and differentiate between various thalassemias and hemoglobinopathies. These conditions, which affect hemoglobin's structure and function, range from mild anemia to severe, potentially fatal disorders. Thalassemias involve reduced synthesis of one or more globin chains, while hemoglobinopathies are characterized by abnormal hemoglobin structure, often leading to disorders like sickle cell anemia. This test is crucial for accurate diagnosis, understanding disease severity, and guiding appropriate treatment strategies.
