The Glucose test measures the level of glucose (sugar) in the blood and is used to evaluate how the body processes and regulates blood sugar. Glucose is the primary source of energy for the body, and maintaining normal levels is essential for overall metabolic health.
This test is commonly used to screen for and monitor diabetes and prediabetes, as well as to assess symptoms such as fatigue, increased thirst, frequent urination, or unexplained weight changes. Glucose testing may be performed fasting or non-fasting, depending on the clinical situation, and is often interpreted alongside other metabolic markers.
