Anti Nuclear Antibody by IFA

The Anti-Nuclear Antibody (ANA) by Indirect Fluorescent Antibody (IFA) test detects the presence of autoantibodies that target the nuclei of cells. This test is essential for diagnosing autoimmune disorders, such as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and other connective tissue diseases. By identifying and quantifying ANA levels, it helps in assessing the likelihood of autoimmune conditions, guiding further diagnostic testing, and informing treatment plans. The IFA method provides detailed patterns and precise results, enhancing the accuracy of the diagnosis.
