Laboratory Developed Test (LDT)
Note
Purkinje Cell (PCCA) antibody and Neuronal Nuclear (ANNA) antibody IgG are screened by IFA. If the IFA screen is indeterminate, then a Neuronal Nuclear Antibodies (Hu, Ri, Yo, and Tr/DNER) IgG by Immunoblot will be added. If the IFA screen is positive at 1:10 or greater, then a PCCA/ANNA antibodies titer and Neuronal Nuclear Antibodies (Hu, Ri, Yo, and Tr/DNER) IgG by Immunoblot will be added. Additional charges apply.
