The tTG IgG (tissue transglutaminase IgG) test is important because it helps screen for celiac disease, especially in individuals who may have IgA deficiency, which can make the standard tTG IgA test unreliable.
TAT Policy
The Turnaround Time (TAT) depends on the following factors:
- Registration date and time
- Type of scan or test
- Scan time or sample collection time
In uncommon circumstances, TAT may be delayed due to test complexity or reasons beyond our control. You will be informed of the estimated TAT at the time of registration.
