Decoding of blood and urine tests

Decoding blood and urine tests means explaining every marker on your report in plain language: what it measures, whether it falls within your lab's reference range, and what to watch for. Upload a photo of your report or a PDF — the AI recognizes your CBC, blood chemistry, hormones, vitamins and tumour markers and works through every marker in a few minutes. The price is a one-time 390 RUB, no subscription and no recurring charges. No sign-up required. This is an informational explanation, not a diagnosis or a treatment plan.

What else we decode

Not just this area — upload any data and get a clear breakdown in minutes.

Scope

What we analyse

  • Complete blood count (CBC)

    We decode your hemoglobin, red blood cells, white blood cells with the differential, platelets, hematocrit, ESR, and the MCV, MCH, and MCHC indices. We explain in plain language what each marker means and why it may be elevated or low — without cryptic abbreviations like wbc and rbc.

  • Blood chemistry

    We break down your liver enzymes ALT and AST, bilirubin, glucose, cholesterol and lipid profile, urea, creatinine, total protein, and C-reactive protein. We show how the markers relate to one another and which deviations are worth discussing with your doctor.

  • Urinalysis

    We explain color, specific gravity, pH, protein, glucose, ketones, white and red blood cells, bacteria, and epithelial cells in the sediment. We help you understand what the findings mean in a routine urinalysis and a Nechiporenko urine test.

  • Hormones: thyroid and reproductive

    We decode TSH, T3, free T4, and anti-TPO antibodies, along with reproductive hormones — FSH, LH, prolactin, testosterone, estradiol, and AMH. We explain your results in light of your cycle phase and the context of your doctor's referral.

  • Vitamins and iron

    We break down ferritin, serum iron, TIBC, transferrin, vitamin D (25-OH), vitamin B12, and folate. We help you see whether the numbers point to a deficiency or an excess and which markers should be read together.

  • Tumour markers

    We explain what common tumour markers show — PSA in men, CA 125, CEA, AFP, CA 15-3, and CA 19-9. We explain why a single tumour marker is not a diagnosis and why trends over time and a specialist consultation matter.

How it works

Three steps to a clear result

  1. Upload your data

    Take a photo of a test or scan, upload a PDF — or just describe your symptoms. Several files at once, no sign-up.

  2. AI analyses everything

    It reads test values and findings on images and checks them against reference ranges. For tests from different dates, it tracks the trend.

  3. A clear result

    What’s normal, what’s off and what it means — in plain language, with advice on which doctor to see.

FAQ

Common questions

  • Upload your CBC report — a photo, PDF, or scan — and the service recognizes the markers: hemoglobin, red blood cells, the white blood cell differential, platelets, ESR, and the MCV and MCH indices. For each item you'll see a simple explanation of what it reflects and whether the value falls within your lab's reference range. This helps you understand the picture and prepare questions for your doctor, but it doesn't replace their assessment.
  • The service flags values outside the reference range and explains what a deviation in a given marker may generally point to. Important: a single parameter rarely tells the whole story on its own — your doctor evaluates them together, factoring in your symptoms, history, and repeat tests. That's why we offer an informational explanation, not a diagnosis or a reason to self-treat.
  • The decoding costs 390 RUB — a one-time card payment with no subscription and no recurring charges; the receipt goes to your email. The current price, including any promotions, is always shown in the form before you start.
  • Partly: a general-purpose chatbot can explain what hemoglobin or TSH is, but it isn't built for lab reports — it reads a table of dozens of markers with your lab's reference ranges unreliably and may mix up or invent values. LabReadAI is a specialized pipeline: it recognizes the report, checks every marker against the reference ranges printed on it, accounts for sex and age, shows how markers relate to each other, and prepares questions for your doctor. And where the data is insufficient, it says so plainly instead of guessing.
  • As an informational breakdown — yes; as a diagnosis — no, and we keep that line explicit. The service works from the reference ranges on your own report rather than "average norms from the internet", flags illegible spots, and draws no conclusions the report does not support. Treatment decisions belong to your doctor: the decoding is a way to arrive prepared, not a replacement.
  • Yes. Many blood, hormone, and urine markers differ between women and men, between children and adults, and shift with age and cycle phase. The service uses the reference ranges from your own report and explains the differences. We're gradually moving detailed breakdowns of individual markers and their ranges onto dedicated pages.
  • Yes — and it is an important case: children have their own ranges for almost every marker, they change with age, and "elevated" values by an adult chart often turn out to be a child's normal. The breakdown checks the markers against the report's reference ranges and the child's age. More on the dedicated page: decoding your child's lab tests.
  • Yes — and this is where the set matters most: TSH alone is half the picture, and it should be read together with free T4 and anti-TPO antibodies. The breakdown explains what your particular combination points to and prepares questions for your endocrinologist. More on the dedicated page: decoding thyroid blood tests.
  • One of the most common reasons to upload labs — and a tricky one: hemoglobin can still be normal while iron stores are already empty, since ferritin falls first. The breakdown reads hemoglobin, ferritin, iron and B12 together and shows which type of picture it resembles. More on the dedicated page: decoding labs for anemia.
  • Yes — the most common incidental finding in blood chemistry. The numbers alone decide little: what matters is the fold-elevation, the ratio between the enzymes, and what GGT and bilirubin are doing — liver tests are read as a panel. More on the dedicated page: decoding liver function tests.
  • A phone photo of the report, a scan or PDF from the lab, or manually entered data all work. The AI recognizes the markers and their values, compares them against the reference ranges listed on the report, and produces a clear explanation. If anything in the photo is illegible, it's best to reshoot it in good lighting so the numbers and units are visible.
  • Yes — you can upload your CBC, blood chemistry, and urinalysis, and the service will work through each report and explain the markers separately. This is handy when the tests were done on the same day and you want to prepare for your visit as a whole. Only a doctor provides a comprehensive assessment and a diagnosis based on all the results together.
  • No sign-up is required — just upload your results and get an explanation of the markers. The service doesn't diagnose or prescribe treatment; it helps you understand what the numbers in your blood or urine test mean and calmly prepare for the conversation with your treating physician.
  • Yes. The Calculators section lets you quickly check a single value against reference tables: blood sugar and HbA1c norms, cholesterol norms with the atherogenic index, hemoglobin norms by sex and age, plus an eGFR calculator by creatinine. It's a handy reference before a full decoding of the whole report.
  • Yes. The Brain training section has free attention, memory and reaction time tests — the Schulte table, the Stroop test, mental math and more: they give you a reference point right in the browser, no sign-up. But keep in mind: declining memory and attention are often linked to B12 or iron (ferritin) deficiency or an underactive thyroid — labs show these things, and they are worth decoding first.
  • Yes. Over time, high blood sugar and blood pressure damage the retinal vessels (diabetic and hypertensive retinopathy), and vision can decline unnoticed. The Vision test section has free online checks — a visual acuity chart calibrated to your screen and an Amsler grid to self-monitor the centre of the retina. It is a guide, not diagnostics: if your labs are off (glucose, HbA1c, cholesterol) or your vision changes, see an ophthalmologist.
  • We will decode a single lab report on this page too, but a military board calls for a different lens: not whether a value is in range, but which articles of the Schedule of Diseases relate to your records, what is documented by examinations and what is missing. For that there is a separate service, "Military board records review": it takes all your medical records at once — discharge summaries, labs, scans, specialist reports — and reads them against the current Schedule of Diseases. The fitness category is decided only by the military medical board — the review is informational.

    Lab tests

    Thanks for interpreting the test results. You did it professionally, taking all the indicators into account. That's exactly the kind of approach I'm missing when I go to my regular doctor or gastroenterologist. Next time I'll get a more comprehensive analysis.

    Lab tests

    Haven't done blood work in a while, so I got some tests done and found out I could use AI to decode the results. Didn't think twice and ordered a detailed breakdown. Really loved it! The AI gave me clear explanations, went into detail, and even answered my follow-up questions. It's a huge time and money saver. Finding a good doctor, getting an appointment, and paying them costs at least twice as much as this decoding service. I recommend it!

  • Irina

    Lab tests

    Hi. Thanks so much for the quick and clear explanation of my test results, and then you also discussed everything and gave recommendations. Yeah, it costs money. But it's basically nothing. And you don't have to go to the doctor, especially when your doctor is like 150 km away. Thanks again. I'm really happy with it and I'll definitely recommend this service to people I know.

    Lab tests

    Decided to check out this site just for fun and uploaded my test results for analysis. The AI gave me the results in like a couple minutes, everything laid out in simple and clear language. No complicated medical jargon, you can immediately see what's normal and what you should pay attention to. For a quick health check - it's just a great tool, saved me a ton of time. Really happy with the service, gonna keep using it.
