Anti Cardiolipin Igg

1,000.00

The Anti-Cardiolipin IgG test measures the level of IgG antibodies against cardiolipin, a phospholipid component of cell membranes. These antibodies belong to a group called antiphospholipid antibodies, which can cause abnormal blood clotting.
This test helps detect the presence of these antibodies to diagnose and monitor antiphospholipid syndrome (APS), an autoimmune disorder that increases the risk of blood clots, pregnancy complications, and stroke.
