Vitamin D is a recognised clinical chemical determinant associated with osteoporosis and osteopenia (reduction in bone density). It also plays a role in the body's immune response, cardiovascular diseases and some types of cancer. Therefore, vitamin D is highly important from a number of diagnostic perspectives.
