Autoimmune Diseases Diagnostics

The initial diagnostics of autoimmune diseases, carried out in the Laboratory for Allergological and Immunological Diagnostics, refers to:

• Systemic lupus erythematosus (CTD screen for ANA, ds DNA)
• Sjögren`s syndrome (CTD screen for ANA anti-Ro antibodies, anti-La antibodies)
• Systemic sclerosis (CTD screen for ANA)
• Limited systemic sclerosis (CTD screen for ANA)
• Polymyositis and dermatomyositis (CTD screen for ANA)
• Mixed connective tissue disease (CTD screen for ANA)
• Antiphospholipid syndrome (cardiolipin antibodies and β2-glycoprotein I)
• Celiac disease (tissue transglutaminase antibodies)
• Vasculitides (ANCA antibodies-MPO and PR3)
• Autoimmune inflammation of thyroid gland (thyroid peroxidase antibodies –antimicrosomal antibodies and antibodies to thyroglobulin – antithyroglobulin antibodies)

If the findings indicate the existence of an autoimmune disease, further clinical tests – additional diagnostics and therapy are carried out in clinical institutions. These analyses are not covered by the RHIF. The analyses fees are charged.
