ENDOMYSIAL IGA ANTIBODY WITH TITRE, SERUM Test in Vadodara Overview
No special preparations needed
- Ema Iga Antibody
- Endpoint Titre
This test detects the presence of IgA antibodies against endomysium, a component of connective tissue in muscles. These antibodies are highly specific for celiac disease.
It is used to help diagnose celiac disease and to monitor dietary compliance in patients who are already diagnosed. It is often performed alongside other tests such as tissue transglutaminase antibodies.
A blood sample is collected, and the serum is tested using indirect immunofluorescence to identify IgA antibodies targeting endomysial tissue.
A positive result indicates a high likelihood of celiac disease, especially when correlated with symptoms and other laboratory tests. A negative result usually rules out the disease.
No fasting is needed. However, the patient should be on a gluten-containing diet before testing to avoid false negatives.
