Antinuclear Antibody (ANA)

The Antinuclear Antibody (ANA) test offered by 24-7 Labs is a crucial diagnostic tool used to detect autoimmune disorders. ANAs are autoantibodies that target substances found in the nucleus of cells, often indicating an abnormal immune response. This test helps healthcare providers diagnose conditions such as lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, Sjögren’s syndrome, and other autoimmune diseases.

Autoimmune diseases occur when the immune system mistakenly attacks the body’s own tissues, leading to inflammation, pain, and organ damage. The ANA test is often one of the first steps in identifying these disorders, guiding further testing and treatment plans. It is particularly valuable for patients experiencing symptoms like joint pain, fatigue, skin rashes, or unexplained fevers.

24-7 Labs provides a convenient and reliable ANA testing service. You can easily order the test online and choose between at-home sample collection or visiting a nearby lab for blood draw. Our accredited laboratories use advanced technology to ensure accurate results with quick turnaround times. Confidentiality and patient privacy are paramount throughout the process.

Once results are available, healthcare providers use the ANA test outcomes alongside clinical evaluations to confirm or rule out autoimmune diseases. A positive ANA result may lead to additional specialized tests to determine the specific condition and severity.

With 24-7 Labs, you receive professional support and clear instructions to navigate your testing experience smoothly. Early detection through ANA testing is vital for effective management of autoimmune diseases, improving patient outcomes and quality of life.
