UC measures the markers listed in its panel and reports each value with a reference range. Read on for what the test checks and how to prepare.

How the UC Is Performed in Appleton

The sample is then sent to a licensed laboratory, where the UC is analyzed. No special equipment is needed for the UC beyond what a routine sample collection requires. After collection, the sample is processed and the results of the UC are reported once the analysis is complete. The UC uses one sample, so no additional specimen is normally required.

Preparing for the UC

Follow the lab's instructions. Staying hydrated before the collection can make the UC sample easier to obtain. Wearing a short-sleeved top gives the collection staff easy access for the UC. If you take medications, keep a list ready to discuss with the collection staff or your provider.

Accuracy and Limitations of the UC

A result from the UC reflects the sample at the time it was collected and does not capture every factor. The accuracy of the UC depends on proper sample collection and on the laboratory method used. A value outside the range is not a diagnosis on its own, so the UC is best interpreted with a provider. Order the Ulcerative Colitis (UC) Test online and visit a local lab for sample collection.
