FAQs

How is a Cobalt Urine Test different from serum?

The urine test measures how much cobalt is being excreted, providing insight into both recent exposure and the body’s clearance efficiency, while the serum test reflects circulating levels in the blood.

Can this test detect implant-related issues?

Yes. It is often used to monitor cobalt release from metal-on-metal joint prosthetics and assess potential complications.

Is fasting required?

No, but avoiding supplements before testing may provide more accurate results.

What is the reference range of cobalt in urine?

The normal range of cobalt in urine is less than 2 nmol/mmol creatinine, and a level above that can be considered metallosis.
