The Cystatin C test is a medical examination that measures the level of cystatin C, a protein produced by cells throughout the body, in the blood. This test is particularly useful for assessing kidney function, as cystatin C is filtered by the kidneys and usually remains at a constant level in the blood. Elevated levels of cystatin C may indicate impaired kidney function, and glomerular filtration rate making the test valuable for the early detection of kidney disease.
