Details

ANAlyzeR™ ANA, IFA with Reflex Titer/Pattern, Systemic Autoimmune Panel 1 - This panel can be helpful in the diagnosis of systemic rheumatic disorders and other autoimmune diseases. Although the test for antinuclear antibodies (ANA) is strongly associated with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), the laboratory evaluation for individuals with clinical suspicion of a variety of autoimmune diseases often begins with an ANA screen. This panel simultaneously tests for ANA (using immunofluorescence) as well as the important specific autoantibodies associated with a positive ANA. It also includes testing for complement proteins, rheumatoid arthritis, Sjogren's syndrome, systemic sclerosis, polymyositis, anti-phospholipid antibody syndrome, and autoimmune thyroid disease.

Reflex testing uses predefined clinical logic to automatically order one or more follow-up tests based on the initial test results. Reflex tests are performed automatically without the intervention of the ordering practitioner. They are conducted using the same sample your Patient already provided. If reflex tests are required, there will be additional charges.
