Transferrin saturation (TSAT) is calculated using a standard laboratory formula. The calculation involves the following steps:
1. First, the serum iron level is measured.
2. Second, the total iron-binding capacity (TIBC) is determined.
3. Finally, the serum iron level is divided by the TIBC, and this ratio is multiplied by 100 to express the result as a percentage.
