About Vitamin A Deficiency Test in Folsom
This panel provides a direct measurement of circulating vitamin A to support the evaluation of a suspected deficiency.
Vitamin A, primarily circulating as retinol, is required for the formation of rhodopsin, a pigment in the retina that enables vision in low light. It also contributes to immune defense, skin health, and normal growth and development.
Because vitamin A is stored in the liver, blood retinol levels may remain within range even when liver reserves are low. A deficiency typically develops when intake is inadequate over time, when fat absorption is impaired, or when the body's demand increases.
The Vitamin A Deficiency Panel is a blood test that quantifies retinol concentration. Results are interpreted alongside clinical signs and other laboratory findings, as retinol levels can be influenced by inflammation, liver function, and nutritional status.
