Autoimmune & Immune Response Test

What is an Autoimmune & Immune Response Test? An ANA (antinuclear antibody) test is a widely used clinical tool that helps assess whether the immune system may be reacting against the body's own cells.

About this test

What is an Autoimmune & Immune Response Test?

An ANA (antinuclear antibody) test is a widely used clinical tool that helps assess whether the immune system may be reacting against the body's own cells. It is commonly used as an initial investigation when autoimmune conditions are suspected.

However, autoimmune conditions can be complex and difficult to identify. Symptoms such as fatigue, joint discomfort and inflammation often overlap with other health concerns, and immune activity can involve multiple pathways beyond those assessed by ANA alone.

That's why this panel goes beyond traditional ANA-only screening, analysing 18 clinically relevant markers to provide a broader overview of immune system activity across:

? Systemic immune activity
? Connective tissue markers
? Muscle & joint-related markers
? Gland & organ-related responses

By combining multiple markers into a single panel, this test is designed to provide wider insight into autoimmune-related immune activity and more structured result categorisation.
