Understanding Your Blood Health: The MPO Stain Test
When you’re concerned about unexplained fatigue, recurrent infections, or abnormal blood test results, the uncertainty can be overwhelming. The Myeloperoxidase (MPO) Stain Test provides the clarity you need to understand what’s happening in your blood and bone marrow. This specialised diagnostic tool helps identify potential blood disorders early, giving you the power to take control of your health journey.
What Does the MPO Stain Test Detect?
The MPO Stain Test examines specific enzymes in your white blood cells called myeloperoxidase. These enzymes play a crucial role in your immune system’s ability to fight infections. When these enzymes are present in abnormal amounts or patterns, it can indicate various blood conditions including certain types of leukaemia, myelodysplastic syndromes, or other bone marrow disorders.
Our advanced cytochemical staining method provides a clear visual representation of these enzymes, allowing our hematology specialists to identify even subtle abnormalities that might otherwise go unnoticed.
Who Should Consider This Test?
This test is particularly important if you’re experiencing:
- Unexplained fatigue that doesn’t improve with rest
- Frequent infections or slow recovery from illnesses
- Abnormal bruising or bleeding without obvious cause
- Unexplained weight loss or night sweats
- Previous abnormal blood test results requiring further investigation
- Family history of blood disorders or leukaemia
- Monitoring known blood conditions
If any of these symptoms sound familiar, this test could provide the answers you need for proper diagnosis and treatment planning.
