Anti SS-A Antibody near me in Vadodara

The Anti SS-A Antibody test measures the presence of SSA (Ro) antibodies in the blood. These antibodies are important markers for systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and Sjögren's syndrome (SS), helping in the diagnosis and monitoring of these conditions. This test helps monitor disease activity and treatment effectiveness in patients already diagnosed with SLE or SS and also helps evaluate patients with symptoms such as joint pain, fatigue, dry eyes, mouth, or skin, suggestive of autoimmune conditions. This test is recommended if you exhibit symptoms associated with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) or Sjögren's syndrome (SS), such as joint pain, fatigue, dry eyes, mouth, and skin, if you have a family history of autoimmune diseases, or if you have been diagnosed with SLE or SS and need to monitor disease activity or assess the efficacy of treatment. However, abnormal results do not confirm a diagnosis on their own. Further evaluation, including medical history, physical examination, and additional diagnostic tests, is needed to make an accurate diagnosis.
