Immunological tests are laboratory analyses that allow assessment of the immune system, detection of autoimmune diseases, allergies, immunodeficiency states, and inflammatory processes.
When are immunological tests required?
In cases of frequent infections, reduced immunity, chronic fatigue, and autoimmune diseases. For the diagnosis of allergies, bronchial asthma, anemia, rheumatoid arthritis, and systemic lupus erythematosus. To evaluate the effectiveness of vaccination, detect inflammatory processes, and identify immunodeficiency conditions. During pregnancy planning, after severe infectious diseases, and in oncological conditions.
Key parameters of immunological testing
- Immunogram – a comprehensive analysis of cellular and humoral immunity (lymphocytes, immunoglobulins).
- Immunoglobulins IgA, IgG, IgM, IgE – measurement of antibody levels to infections, allergens, and autoimmune diseases.
- Cytokines and interleukins – indicators of inflammatory activity and immune response.
- HLA typing – assessment of compatibility for organ transplantation and predisposition to autoimmune diseases.
- Autoantibody tests (ANA, RF, anti-dsDNA) – detection of systemic autoimmune disorders.
How is the examination performed?
Blood is collected from a vein, and the analysis is usually performed on an empty stomach. In some cases, skin testing or saliva sampling may be used.
