Maintaining optimal vitamin levels is important for good health. By regularly checking your vitamin levels, you can proactively support a healthy diet and supplement any deficiencies. A lack of vitamins can lead to various health problems. Blood tests show whether you are getting enough vitamins through your diet.
It is possible that an examination may lead to incidental findings. Before the examination, Prescan will ask you whether you would like to be informed about incidental findings for which monitoring or treatment is possible, as well as incidental findings related to conditions that may affect your offspring. Prescan is not permitted to inform you about incidental findings for which no monitoring or treatment is possible (see NEN 8051 standard for more information).
The results of the examination can be shared with your general practitioner. For more information about preventive medical research, Prescan advises you to review the following independent sources:
