The more advanced "Medical Lab Tests w/LDS Ranks" product includes Laboratory Decision System (LDS) rankings.

LDS uses a proprietary ranking system that enables healthcare providers to correctly select and order the most relevant tests based on diseases, symptoms, and ICD-10 codes.

Our LDS system scores over 10,000 test-disease/condition pairs, assigns a rank from 1 to 10 and displays the ranks as a simple color coded indicator of clinical relevance, medical necessity and testing indication.
