Diagnostic testing for heavy medals

Heavy metal poisoning is frequently associated with non-specific symptoms of disease that do not respond to conventional treatment, such as fatigue, concentration and sleep disorders, headaches, a tendency to develop infections or suffer from allergies, neurological deficits and haematopoietic disorders. The cause of these symptoms often goes unrecognised, since heavy metal poisoning is not considered during the detailed diagnostic investigation. Early diagnostic testing is indispensable for detecting insidious cases of poisoning.
