Infectious serology tests
Why is laboratory testing important?
Laboratory tests can help identify or, where appropriate, rule out the underlying diseases.
However, it is important to highlight that the result of a laboratory test does not in itself constitute a diagnosis, only the results are included in the finding. You will receive the diagnosis, therapy or treatment recommendation from your specialist or treating physician who ordered the laboratory tests.
Contact your doctor with all laboratory test results.
Infectious serology tests
By detecting antibodies against various pathogens, we look for the background of acute and chronic infections. With their help we can detect susceptibility, the course of the infection and protection. Serostatus tests before and during pregnancy are of particular importance. (TORCH: Toxoplasma, Rubeola, Cytomegalia, Herpes simplex and Varicella).
