Rheumatology Testing

 

 

Our laboratory offers serology, pathology, and genetic diagnostics including proprietary tests developed in collaboration with leading researchers and institutions.

Immco’s RA Profile III combines serum testing with genetic testing to give you the most complete information regarding your patient. Tests include:

  • ANA (systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), systemic sclerosis (SSc), mixed connective tissue disease, Rheumatoid Arthritis, and Sjögren’s syndrome)     
  • Keratin (AKA) (Rheumatoid Arthritis)
  • Rheumatoid Factor (RF) (Rheumatoid Arthritis)
  • Cyclic Citrullinated Peptides (CCP) (Early RA)
  • Genetic test HLA DR 4 (Erosive Rheumatoid Arthritis, juvenile RA, vasculitis and Felty’s syndrome)         
  • Genetic test HLA B27 (Ankylosing spondylitis, seronegative arthropathies, reactive arthritis, spinal and peripheral joint inflammation, and anterior uveitis) 

With this complete picture, aggressive forms can be treated earlier. Genetic testing can also be completed on family members who may want to know their susceptibility.
