Gout is usually diagnosed through examination, history of symptoms, and blood tests. The serum urate test (which measures uric acid in the plasma) is most often used to diagnose the condition. Physicians often use sedimentation rate, blood count, electrolytes, and renal function tests to rule out other types of arthritis or other unrelated medical conditions.
