List Of Lab Tests Normal Values with Conventional Units, SI Units. Each commercial laboratory has its own set of normal values, called Normal Range or Reference Range on your lab report. These values depend on the equipment or method used. Compare your results to the range shown on your lab report. Results that are out of range may not represent a problem.

Reference values vary based on several factors, including the specific laboratory that supplies them. A patient’s blood test values should be interpreted based on the reference value of the laboratory in which the test was done; the laboratory typically provides these values with the test result. Representative values are listed in alphabetical order in the following table.
