Because of this, the ceruloplasmin test can be used along with one or more copper tests to help diagnose Wilson disease, a genetic disorder that can lead to excess storage of copper in the eyes, liver, brain, and other organs.

This test is performed for patients suspected to be suffering from Wilsons disease.
Wilson's disease is a genetic disorder that prevents the body from removing extra copper, causing copper to build up in the liver, brain, eyes, and other organs. Wilson's disease can lead to high copper levels that cause life-threatening organ damage. Ceruloplasmin is an acute phase protein and a transport protein for copper. Serum ceruloplasmin levels are reduced in Wilson’s disease associated with increased urinary copper excretion and increased hepatic copper content. 15% of patients with Wilson’s disease may show normal ceruloplasmin levels.
