Description: A serum phosphorus test can determine whether you have high or low phosphorus levels. Phosphorus is an important element that is vital to several of your body’s physiologic processes. It helps with bone growth, energy storage, and nerve and muscle production. Various conditions, including liver disease and vitamin D deficiency, can cause your blood phosphorus level to become too high or too low.
