• eAGEstimated Average Glucose (eAG)eAG restates your A1C in the same units as a glucose test, to show roughly what your average blood sugar has been over about 3 months.
• EBNAEBV nuclear antigen (EBNA) IgGAn antibody that appears months after Epstein-Barr virus infection and stays for life, so a positive result usually points to an infection in the past.
• EBNA IgGEBV nuclear antigen (EBNA) IgGAn antibody that appears months after Epstein-Barr virus infection and stays for life, so a positive result usually points to an infection in the past.
• EBV NA IgGEBV nuclear antigen (EBNA) IgGAn antibody that appears months after Epstein-Barr virus infection and stays for life, so a positive result usually points to an infection in the past.
• EBV VCA IgGEBV viral capsid antigen (VCA) IgGAn antibody to Epstein-Barr virus that appears in a first infection and then stays for life, so it shows whether you have ever been infected.
• EBV VCA IgMEBV viral capsid antigen (VCA) IgMAn early antibody to Epstein-Barr virus that is often present during a first infection and fades within weeks to a few months.
• EDDPUrine Methadone ScreenA urine screen for methadone, an opioid medicine used for pain and opioid use disorder, or for EDDP, its main breakdown product.
• eGFReGFR (Creatinine-based)An estimate of how well your kidneys filter blood, worked out from your creatinine, age and sex.
• eGFRcreGFR (Creatinine-based)An estimate of how well your kidneys filter blood, worked out from your creatinine, age and sex.
• eGFRcr-cyseGFR (Creatinine + Cystatin C, CKD-EPI 2021)An estimate of how well your kidneys filter blood, worked out from both your creatinine and cystatin C levels plus your age and sex.
• eGFRcr-cysCeGFR (Creatinine + Cystatin C, CKD-EPI 2021)An estimate of how well your kidneys filter blood, worked out from both your creatinine and cystatin C levels plus your age and sex.
• eGFRcyseGFR (Cystatin C-based)An estimate of how well your kidneys filter blood, worked out from your cystatin C level, age and sex, without using creatinine.
• eGFRcysCeGFR (Cystatin C-based)An estimate of how well your kidneys filter blood, worked out from your cystatin C level, age and sex, without using creatinine.
• EGOUrinalysis, Complete (With Microscopy)Lab panelPhysical and dipstick urine exam plus microscopic sediment.
• ELFEnhanced Liver Fibrosis (ELF) ScoreA blood score made from three proteins linked to liver scarring. It helps estimate the risk of advanced scarring and of liver problems getting worse.
• EMA-IgAEndomysial Antibody IgA (EMA)A blood test for IgA antibodies that are very specific for celiac disease, usually used to back up a positive tTG-IgA result.
• ENAENA Screen (extractable nuclear antigens)Looks for antibodies to several proteins inside the cell nucleus at once; a positive screen is followed by tests that name the exact antibody.
• ENA 6Extractable Nuclear Antigen (ENA) PanelLab panelSpecific nuclear antibodies for lupus, Sjogren, scleroderma and myositis.
• EO#Eosinophils (Absolute)The number of eosinophils, white blood cells that take part in allergies and fight some parasites, in each microliter of your blood.
• EO%Eosinophils (Percent)The share of your white blood cells that are eosinophils, a cell type involved in allergies and in fighting some parasites.
• Eos%Eosinophils (Percent)The share of your white blood cells that are eosinophils, a cell type involved in allergies and in fighting some parasites.
• EPAEPA (Eicosapentaenoic Acid)The amount of EPA, an omega-3 fat found in fish and algae, in your blood. It mostly reflects what you ate or took recently.
• EPOErythropoietin (EPO)A hormone made mostly by the kidneys that tells the bone marrow to make red blood cells. It is read alongside your hemoglobin.
• ESRErythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (ESR)A simple blood test that shows how fast red blood cells settle in a tube. A faster rate can be a sign of inflammation somewhere in the body.
• EtGEthyl Glucuronide (EtG), UrineA by-product of alcohol that stays in urine for a day or more after drinking, long after the alcohol itself has left the blood.
• EtOHEthanol (Blood Alcohol)Measures how much alcohol (ethanol) is in your blood at the moment of the draw. It is a snapshot of very recent drinking, not a long-term marker.
• EVFHematocritThe share of your blood made up of red blood cells, shown as a percent. It usually moves together with hemoglobin.
