ERYTHROPOIETIN

The test measures the level of erythropoietin, a hormone produced primarily by the kidneys that stimulates the production of red blood cells in the bone marrow. This test is often used to diagnose the cause of anemia, assess bone marrow function and evaluate anemia, monitor chronic kidney disease or investigate unusual red blood cell production.
