Glomerular Disease
Precision testing to advance understanding
Glomerular diseases include a number of conditions that can damage the kidneys’ filtering units, the glomeruli, resulting in protein and red blood cells leaking into the urine. Extensive clinical, laboratory, and pathologic evaluation accurately identifies the underlying etiology of different types of glomerular disease.
We offer comprehensive renal testing services and concise results to deliver answers your practice needs to increase accuracy and improve outcomes for glomerular diseases.
Glomerulonephritis
