Alzheimer’s disease is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that mainly affects older people. As life expectancy rises, the disease is becoming more common worldwide. As more and more people reach old age, the number of people at risk of developing dementia also grows. Alzheimer’s disease accounts for 60-80% of dementia cases. Early diagnosis is crucial, because recognising the disease in time makes it possible to ease symptoms and slow its progression, even through lifestyle changes. A blood test offers a new way to detect Alzheimer’s disease early, before symptoms appear.

Musculoskeletal complaints with joint pain can affect any joint in the body and may be acute or chronic. Such pain may be caused by an immunological, chronic inflammatory rheumatic disease (most often rheumatoid arthritis) or by “wear and tear”. The latter is the most common joint condition. Distinguishing between the two is particularly important, as they require different treatment. Alongside the physical and imaging examinations that are part of a routine rheumatology assessment, certain lab tests can also help distinguish immunological inflammatory forms from “wear and tear”. In addition to tests that reveal inflammatory and autoimmune processes in the body, the extended package also includes laboratory parameters that provide information on the condition of the bones as well as the joints. What makes the package comprehensive is that it also includes the MMP3 (matrix metalloproteinase 3) test, which can be used as a biomarker to detect joint inflammation and joint damage.

The Leiden mutation is a hereditary blood clotting disorder that significantly increases clot formation and thus the risk of deep vein thrombosis and venous thromboembolism. 80% of inherited thrombosis tendency is linked to this change.

The package includes the key molecular genetic tests associated with an inherited increased risk of thrombosis, one of the most common causes of deep vein thrombosis and venous thromboembolism.

Before planned surgery, a general assessment is carried out to evaluate and minimise any health risks and to optimise the patient’s condition before the procedure. The tests required depend on several factors, such as the patient’s age, general condition, existing conditions and the type of surgery. In addition to the anaesthetic assessment, the evaluation also includes certain lab tests. Our pre-operative lab packages contain the parameters that may need to be checked before surgery. We recommend our “basic” package before minor operations and our “extended” package before major procedures. Please always agree the required lab parameters with the specialists at the institution performing the surgery!

The POST COVID lab package gives people who have had the infection a picture of any complications that may have developed. We particularly recommend it to athletes and active people who have had the infection, before they return to sport.

This test detects the fatty acids incorporated into the red blood cell membrane and provides information on the composition and function of cell membranes. The analysis reflects fatty acid intake over the past 3-4 months. The red blood cell membrane lipid profile can be tested at any age and is particularly recommended for patients with cardiovascular disease, inflammatory, immune or allergic conditions, or mood, behavioural or cognitive disorders. It is also recommended for patients who would like information on the quality of the fats they regularly eat. As the sample is evaluated in cooperation with the SYNLAB international laboratory network, samples can only be taken on the days before dispatch, on Mondays and Tuesdays. Please bear this in mind when booking!

With the Stress package, a single blood sample gives you a comprehensive picture of how stress may be affecting your overall health. This complex test package not only maps the condition of the key organs, such as the liver, pancreas, kidneys, adrenal glands, thyroid and blood-forming system, but also helps assess health risk factors caused by stress. We pay particular attention to parameters that reveal conditions triggered by stress, which often go unnoticed while affecting how you feel and your everyday performance. Long-term stress can contribute to cardiovascular disease (such as high blood pressure, atherosclerosis and heart attack) and can also affect metabolism. It can cause weight gain or loss, increase the risk of diabetes and lead to digestive problems. The results help you understand exactly how stress affects your body, so you can take personalised steps to reduce the risks it causes. With a little attention you can noticeably improve your wellbeing and energy levels and handle everyday challenges more effectively and calmly.

Persistent headaches can make a child’s everyday life difficult. Like stomach aches, they are often somatic, i.e. physical symptoms with psychological causes, but they can also accompany many illnesses. Abnormal lab parameters can also point us towards the cause, which is why the tests in the “Buksi package” are recommended in such cases.

We recommend the “Picky eater lab package” for children with persistent loss of appetite, tiredness, an increased need for sleep or a general change in condition, or who have lost weight or stopped gaining weight in recent months. It is particularly recommended for digestive or bowel complaints, such as bloating, frequent diarrhoea or fatty stools, and if the child regularly complains of stomach ache after eating or during the day. The test may also be advisable if there is a family history of coeliac disease or inflammatory bowel disease.

We recommend this lab package for children who show persistent tiredness, loss of appetite or insufficient weight gain that cannot be explained by everyday demands. Tiredness can occur during both physical and mental exertion, so the test can help uncover the underlying causes.

Few things are more frustrating for a parent than a child who is ill almost all the time. This is often due to natural physiological processes. Certain anatomical features, such as enlarged adenoids or narrower airways, can also make children prone to more frequent and longer illnesses. However, there may also be congenital or acquired differences in how the immune system works, causing infections to occur more often, last longer or be more severe. This lab package contains tests that can help reveal the cause of recurring illness. Alongside the lab tests, a paediatric consultation is also recommended and, where justified, a specialist immunology examination may be needed.

Childhood overweight is increasingly common in Hungary and can lead to lasting damage to health in the long term. Its most common consequences include cardiovascular disease, high blood pressure, diabetes and musculoskeletal problems. It is particularly important to prevent these conditions, which often require lifelong treatment later on, already in childhood. Together, these laboratory parameters help detect abnormalities in time and prevent complications. The results support medical decision-making and point the way to lifestyle changes that protect the child’s long-term health.

The small routine package is a basic lab package that tests the most important health parameters and is used to assess the body’s general condition.

The large routine lab package is a comprehensive package that contains all elements of the small routine test plus additional parameters, giving a more detailed picture of general health.

Before surgical or ear, nose and throat procedures, a prior lab test is essential to help minimise the risks of anaesthesia. The lab tests not only give a comprehensive picture of the body’s current condition but also provide important information on blood clotting parameters, supporting the safe preparation of the procedure. Please always agree the required lab parameters with the specialists at the institution performing the surgery!

If the surgery may involve greater blood loss, the tests must be supplemented with blood group typing and antibody screening before the operation. In addition to the generally recommended parameters, this package also includes these tests. Please always agree the required lab parameters with the specialists at the institution performing the surgery!

This blood test package gives a comprehensive picture of the presence of four pathogens transmitted mainly through sexual contact, as well as the immune response to previous infections. The test checks for hepatitis B and C viruses, HIV (which causes AIDS) and the pathogen that causes syphilis. The test can detect not only a current infection but also the immune response to previous infections, which can provide important information for treatment and prevention.

This test package provides information on the body’s glucose balance. We recommend it to patients in whom a carbohydrate metabolism disorder is suspected. In diagnosed diabetes, the test can also draw attention to developing complications.

Health preparation is an important part of family planning, and it applies to men as well as women. Men’s reproductive health has a direct impact on successful conception, the development of the foetus and the future child’s health. Detecting and treating any problems in time can improve fertility and the success of family planning. This package provides men with a general health check, testing hormonal status, the presence of certain diseases and deficiencies that are key to fertility.

We recommend this test package specifically for men over 45, to give them a comprehensive picture of their health. The package makes it possible to detect diseases that can already be identified by lab tests before symptoms appear. Early detection is key to preventing or treating conditions such as diabetes, rheumatic diseases and thyroid disorders, and checking prostate health is of course essential too. Regular screening is recommended even if you currently have no symptoms, so that every year you can be sure you are doing everything to stay healthy. Do not wait for symptoms to appear: prevent problems and stay full of energy every day!

With our general health check package, “Élni jó”, we are now including one of our new, innovative services free of charge: the OKOSLELET Basic risk assessment package. With the help of artificial intelligence*, the OKOSLELET Basic package can estimate the risk of 7 disease groups based on laboratory test results. The tests in the “Élni jó” package with a free Basic OKOSLELET give a general picture of how the body is working.

Hair loss is an increasingly common complaint today. It can occur at any age and causes cosmetic concerns for men too. However, hair loss is not only a cosmetic issue: it can also be a sign of many diseases. With increased hair loss, it is essential to test thyroid function and check carbohydrate and fat metabolism and liver and kidney function. A lack of minerals and vitamins is also often linked to thinning hair and increased hair loss, so testing these is essential as well. Hair loss may even be caused by chronic, symptom-free inflammation and autoimmune processes, and our package includes tests for these too. For men, we also test the levels of androgenic hormones (testosterone, dihydrotestosterone), as abnormal levels can also be linked to increased hair loss. Ask for our test package to uncover the underlying factors in time and take effective steps for the health of your hair.

Insulin resistance is an increasingly common problem that can pose serious health risks in the long term if it remains untreated for a long time. This complex test package not only gives a comprehensive picture of carbohydrate metabolism but also provides information on general health. The package includes a 3-point glucose tolerance test (0-60-120 minutes), during which insulin levels are measured at the same time. If you experience tiredness, increased hunger, weight gain or frequent mood swings, this test is worth having.

We put together the “Kerek” package specifically for people who would like to learn more about the causes of obesity, the risk factors it leads to, or possible explanations for why weight loss has not worked. Obesity is now a widespread disease and not just a cosmetic issue: it has many known serious complications, such as cardiovascular disease, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, carbohydrate metabolism disorders and gynaecological problems (e.g. PCOS). In many cases the consequences of obesity can be reversed or even prevented through lifestyle changes such as regular exercise and a balanced diet. Take a step for your own health and find out how to make your lifestyle change more effective, so you can feel more energetic and healthier again!

Your health comes first, and with the Manager package a single blood sample gives you a comprehensive picture of how your body is working. This complex test package not only maps the condition of the key organs, such as the liver, pancreas, kidneys, adrenal glands, thyroid and blood-forming system, but also gives an accurate picture of carbohydrate metabolism and the presence of inflammatory processes. We also test special parameters that help reveal stress-related conditions, which often affect your everyday wellbeing unnoticed. With the results, you can take personalised action for your health and reduce lifestyle-related risk factors. With a little attention you can noticeably improve how you feel and face everyday challenges more easily and with more energy.

Thyroid diseases are widespread and often go unnoticed, as the symptoms may be mild at first. This is why regular testing of thyroid function is particularly important. The thyroid plays a key role in the body’s energy balance and metabolism, so a thyroid disorder can cause many symptoms, such as tiredness, weight fluctuation, hair loss or mood changes. The OKOSLELET Thyroid Extended package is an innovative lab test that includes a standard lab report as well as a risk assessment for thyroid disease carried out by artificial intelligence. Discover the OKOSLELET Thyroid Extended package, which uses the power of artificial intelligence to assess the risk of thyroid disease based solely on your lab results. Your results are compared with several hundred million lab results from more than 1 million patients, so the system identifies any similarities and differences and then calculates the probability that the diseases concerned are present. The OKOSLELET Thyroid Extended package tests not only the basic hormonal functions of the thyroid but also specific and autoimmune parameters that can help detect thyroid dysfunction early. It also includes important tests of the body’s basic functions, including the blood-forming system, kidney function, electrolyte balance and carbohydrate and fat metabolism, and provides information on inflammatory processes in the body. Compared with the OKOSLELET Thyroid “Basic” risk assessment package, this package contains more general and thyroid-specific tests, so in addition to a general health check it gives deeper insight into thyroid function. The risk assessment carried out by artificial intelligence is more accurate and detailed than with the Basic package and can also estimate the risk of different types of thyroid inflammation.

The OKOSLELET Thyroid Basic package includes lab parameters that allow a general assessment of thyroid health as well as a risk assessment for thyroid disease. Please note that the OKOSLELET Thyroid “Basic” risk assessment package is a tool that supports the early detection of certain diseases, but it is intended for risk assessment only. It cannot be used to make a specific diagnosis. The risk assessment may produce false negative and false positive results. The risk assessment carried out by OKOSLELET differs from the approach and professional guidelines used in conventional medical diagnostics.

In addition to PSA (prostate-specific antigen), which indicates prostate health, the Prostate package also includes other lab tests that characterise general health.

Tumour markers alone are not sufficient to diagnose cancer, as the level of these proteins in various body fluids can also rise for other reasons, and a negative result does not necessarily rule out a tumour in the body. The package tests the markers for the most common cancers in men.

Tumour markers alone are not sufficient to diagnose cancer, as the level of these proteins in various body fluids can also rise for other reasons, and a negative result does not necessarily rule out a tumour in the body. The package tests the markers for the most common cancers in men, supplemented by markers for other, less common types of tumour.

Colorectal cancer is one of the leading causes of cancer death in Hungary among both men and women. Colorectal cancer detected at an early stage has a good chance of being treated successfully. This type of tumour is hard to notice because it causes no symptoms or pain in the early stages, so it can go unnoticed for a long time (even years). Regular screening is important even when you have no symptoms. This combined test package includes stool tests and blood tests, which can help with early detection. It is important to stress that colonoscopy is currently the most effective known screening method for colorectal cancer, and our test package does not replace it.

The gut barrier lab package is a complex “screening” test that aims to detect focal processes originating in the gut and linked to histamine release. Such processes may lie behind the very common symptoms subjectively experienced as “food intolerance”, as well as behind disease processes of unknown origin referred to in the literature as “chronic non-specific inflammation”, which are responsible for complications of diabetes and atherosclerosis, for example. The symptoms do not necessarily or primarily affect the digestive system; they can appear in many parts of the body, for example as skin symptoms, weight problems (overweight or weight loss), migraine, tiredness, joint pain, anxiety or depression.

About half of the mutations that predispose to breast cancer are found in the gene called BRCA1 and a third in BRCA2; the remaining hereditary cases are shared among several other genes. The test looks for mutations in BRCA1 and BRCA2 as well as in 25 other genes that, although less often, also play a role in the development of breast cancer. Most of these genes predispose not only to breast cancer but also to various other types of cancer, so this test panel can also detect HNPCC (Lynch syndrome), Li-Fraumeni syndrome, Cowden syndrome, ataxia-telangiectasia, Nijmegen syndrome and Peutz-Jeghers syndrome.

Colorectal cancer is one of the most common malignant cancers in Hungary. It is hard to detect because it causes no symptoms or pain for a long time, so it can go unnoticed for a long period (even years). Screening, however, can detect it at an early stage, when the chances of successful treatment are very good. The ColonAiQ test is a multigene DNA methylation test performed on a blood sample to estimate the risk of colorectal tumours. The test indicates the presence of colorectal cancer with high accuracy and sensitivity and may also be suitable for detecting polyps (specificity 92%, sensitivity 86%). The test can help estimate the risk of recurrence and metastasis after colorectal tumours have been removed. The test is performed on a blood sample, which can be taken at any time of day. It can be repeated regularly for risk assessment. Please note that the test does not replace a colonoscopy and the result is not a clinical diagnosis.

In addition to measuring vitamin D levels, this test package provides basic information on the most fundamental parameters of how the body works. Vitamin D not only plays a role in healthy bone development but also affects the immune system, the nervous system, the cardiovascular system and metabolism.

We recommend this test package specifically for women over 45, to give them a comprehensive picture of their health. This package helps you detect in time any conditions that may be present without symptoms but can already be identified by laboratory tests. Early detection can be key to treating and monitoring conditions such as diabetes, rheumatic diseases or thyroid disorders. This comprehensive test is worth having even if you currently have no symptoms, so that every year you can be sure you are doing everything to stay healthy. Take a step for your health, because prevention is always easier than treatment!

Ask for our test package to uncover the underlying factors in time and take effective steps for the health of your hair.

The menopause is a natural and inevitable stage in a woman’s life, during which the ovaries gradually stop working and menstruation ends for good. It usually occurs between the ages of 45 and 55, but it progresses at an individual pace for each woman. The menopause does not just mean the end of menstruation, but a whole series of hormonal changes that can also affect your health. During this period, the risk of certain conditions, such as cardiovascular problems, diabetes and osteoporosis, also increases. If you are experiencing signs of the menopause, such as irregular periods, hot flushes, sleep problems or mood swings, and would like to know whether these symptoms are due to the menopause, our test package can help you see more clearly. Among other things, the package gives a comprehensive picture of your general health, hormonal status and risk of osteoporosis, helping you enter the menopause more consciously, with your health in mind.

Get to know how your female hormone system works! The test can help uncover the causes of gynaecological complaints. This package measures the levels of cycle-dependent female sex hormones, with the sample taken between days 21 and 23 of the menstrual cycle, in the luteal phase. The test gives a comprehensive picture of how the organs involved in female reproductive function are working during this important period. If you have irregular periods, fertility problems or other gynaecological complaints, this test can provide valuable information for you and your doctor.

Get to know how your female hormone system works! The test can help uncover the causes of gynaecological complaints. This package measures the levels of cycle-dependent female sex hormones, with the sample taken between days 3 and 5 of the menstrual cycle, in the follicular phase. The test gives a comprehensive picture of how the organs involved in female reproductive function are working during this important period. The test also provides important information on ovarian reserve, i.e. how many active follicles are available in the ovaries. If you have irregular periods, fertility problems or other gynaecological complaints, this test can provide valuable information for you and your doctor.

Take a step towards hormonal balance: find out what lies behind PCOS! Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is increasingly common among women of childbearing age and can cause many symptoms that affect quality of life. If you experience menstrual disorders, skin problems, weight changes, fertility problems or increased hair growth, it is worth getting tested to see whether PCOS is the cause. PCOS is often linked to insulin resistance, which can pose further health risks in the longer term. Our test can help clarify hormonal imbalances and point to personalised solutions for you.

Cardiovascular diseases are among the leading causes of death in Hungary and worldwide, accounting for almost half of all deaths. The most common are heart attack, stroke, heart failure and coronary artery disease. In addition to age and hereditary factors, the risk of developing them is increased by certain diseases (high blood pressure, diabetes) and lifestyle factors such as overweight, lack of exercise, smoking and high psychosocial stress. For cardiovascular disease, too, screening aimed at early detection is particularly important. Alongside detailed cardiological examinations, lab tests are essential, as they provide information on further risk factors. We recommend the cardiovascular basic package for patients who would like a comprehensive picture of the condition of their heart and blood vessels.

The extended package provides information on the risk of heart failure and on a parameter that may play a role in inflammation of the vessel walls and atherosclerosis, and it also includes a test for one of the most common genetic mutations responsible for an increased tendency to thrombosis.

The acronym TORCH is used for microorganisms that can harm the foetus during pregnancy. The name is made up of the initials of the pathogens: Toxoplasma gondii, “Others” (other microbes), rubella virus, cytomegalovirus and herpes simplex viruses. The tests in the discounted TORCH package are worth having early in family planning, so that protection against dangerous infections can be started, or so that an uncertain serostatus discovered later does not cause worry about the baby during pregnancy. If the screening tests were not done before the planned pregnancy, they can also be carried out during pregnancy, ideally as early as possible.
