Description

Method: CLIA
Comment: Combined assay with Anti TPO Antibody (Test Code Z201) is recommended.
Price: 1050.00
Report: Daily
Usage: Anti Tg autoantibody measurements are recommended if Anti TPO autoantibody is negative, but clinical suspicion of Autoimmune thyroid disease is high. Detection of these antibodies in cases of Neonatal hypothyrodism suggests transplacental antibody transfer particularly if there is a maternal history of autoimmune thyroiditis.
