Used in the diagnosis and monitoring of ANCA-associated vasculitis (AAV), particularly microscopic polyangiitis (MPA) and eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA). P-ANCA is named for the perinuclear fluorescence pattern seen on IFA.

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.
