Procalcitonin Blood Test

Kentucky rates for HCPCS 84145

Measures procalcitonin, a substance that climbs sharply in the blood during a serious bacterial infection while staying low in most viral illnesses. It helps doctors judge how likely a bacterial infection is, how severe it is, and whether antibiotics can safely be stopped as a patient improves. It is often repeated so the trend can be followed.
