Crd Testing By Macroarray, Serum

CRD Testing by Microarray

About this test

A specialized blood test uses a macroarray technique to analyze Component-Resolved Diagnostics (CRD). It helps identify specific allergen components in the serum to provide a detailed profile of a person’s allergies. This test improves the accuracy of allergy diagnosis by pinpointing the exact proteins causing reactions. It is especially useful for complex or multiple allergies. By identifying specific allergen components, doctors can tailor treatment and management plans more effectively.

Why consider this test?

This test is consider to precisely identify the specific allergen proteins causing allergic reactions. It helps differentiate between true allergies and cross-reactions, improving diagnostic accuracy. This detailed information supports personalized treatment plans, such as targeted immunotherapy. It is especially useful for patients with complex or multiple allergies or unclear allergy test results.

Who should get this test done?

• Individuals with complex or multiple allergies
• Patients with unclear or inconclusive results from standard allergy tests
• Those experiencing persistent or severe allergic symptoms
• People undergoing evaluation for tailored allergy treatments like immunotherapy
• Individuals needing to distinguish between true allergies and cross-relativities

More Information

It improves diagnosis accuracy by identifying the exact triggers rather than general allergen sources. This helps avoid unnecessary treatments and reduces allergic reactions.
