SEROLOGY
Radiology
The C-ANCA blood test detects autoantibodies directed against cytoplasmic components of neutrophils, most commonly proteinase-3 (PR3). It is primarily used to screen for and support the diagnosis of ANCA-associated vasculitis, especially Granulomatosis with Polyangiitis (GPA, formerly Wegener’s granulomatosis).

Description
When people are exposed to virus or bacteria their body’s immune system generates particular antibodies against the organism. Antibody levels help physicians decide if an infection appeared recently or some time ago. Viral infections, bacterial infections and others can be diagnosed with the help of serological studies.
We have the capability to test for blood-borne pathogens and examine blood specimens for vaccine preventable diseases, mosquito-borne diseases and diseases transmitted from animals to humans. Quality control with perfect results is the central goal. Towards this, the department employs the latest technologies that hugely increase the accuracy of the tests and diminish the chances of human error. The advanced methods in use produce a high level of sensitivity and accuracy while yielding great quality results.
TAT Policy
The Turnaround Time (TAT) for a test depends on the following factors:
- Registration date and time
- Type of scan or test
- Scan time or sample collection time
Please note that in uncommon circumstances, TAT may be delayed due to the complexity of the test or reasons beyond our control. You will be informed about the estimated TAT at the time of registration or after completion of the test.
