Iron Studies Without Ferritin

Iron Studies without Ferritin typically include measurements of serum iron, total iron binding capacity (TIBC), and transferrin saturation. These tests provide valuable information about the body's iron stores and how efficiently iron is transported. While ferritin is a more sensitive indicator of iron storage, these tests can still help diagnose iron deficiency anemia or iron overload in certain cases. However, a complete picture of iron status often requires additional testing, including ferritin levels.
