2. Detection of elevated or decreased levels of specific blood components (e.g., enzymes, proteins, electrolytes)

3. Identification of abnormal blood cell counts or morphology without a definitive diagnosis

4. Observation of abnormal coagulation profiles or clotting factors

5. Discovery of abnormal serum enzyme levels

6. Detection of abnormal plasma protein levels

7. Identification of abnormal findings in other specified blood examinations
