About this test
Abnormal Hb Studies (Hb Electrophoresis) is a blood test that identifies and quantifies different types of hemoglobin. This is crucial for diagnosing various hemoglobinopathies, including thalassemia syndromes and sickle cell disease, which are genetic blood disorders. Individuals with symptoms like anemia, unexplained fatigue, or a family history of such conditions should consider this test for proper evaluation and management.
