Celiac Disease Diagnostic Panel:
Fasting Required: No
Lab: Quest Diagnostics
Specimen: Blood
Results: This is a send out test - Set up on Wednesday - Average processing time 5-7 days after lab receives.
Note: Result turnaround times are an estimate and are not guaranteed. Our reference lab may need additional time due to weather, holidays, confirmation/repeat testing, or equipment maintenance.
Description: Celiac disease is characterized by the presence of Transglutaminase, Gliadin, and Reticulin Antibodies. Such patients display a hypersensitivity to gluten (wheat) in their diet. The antibody is undetectable when patients with hypersensitivity are placed on gluten-free diets. Antibody IgA is more specific and IgG is more sensitive to Celiac disease.
Analytes Reported:
