Elevated levels are most commonly associated with Wilson’s disease, a genetic disorder that causes copper accumulation in tissues, particularly the liver and brain.

  • If Wilson’s disease is suspected.
  • If there are unexplained liver dysfunction or neurological symptoms.
  • If copper metabolism disorders are being evaluated.
  • If a healthcare provider is monitoring known Wilson’s disease.
  • No fasting is required.
  • Avoid copper supplements unless instructed otherwise.
  • Accurate 24-hour urine collection is essential.
