Ham Test Paroxysmal Nocturnal Hemoglobinuria PNH Screening Test
Introduction to the Ham Test
The Ham Test, also known as the Paroxysmal Nocturnal Hemoglobinuria (PNH) Screening Test, is a vital diagnostic tool used to identify PNH, a rare but serious blood disorder. This test is crucial for diagnosing conditions that affect hemopoiesis, the process of blood cell production in the body. Early detection of PNH can significantly affect treatment outcomes and patient management.
