Ankylosing Spondylitis Test in Chicago, Illinois

Same day and Affordable Ankylosing Spondylitis Test, Locations Nationwide

Are you or someone you know suffering from spinal pain and stiffness? Request A Test offers the convenient and affordable Ankylosing Spondylitis Test in Chicago, IL. This test, also known as the HLA B27 test, detects the presence of Human Leukocyte Antigen B27 (HLA B27), a gene that helps the immune system to distinguish the body's own proteins from viral or bacterial proteins. Ankylosing Spondylitis is a form of arthritis which affects the vertebrae in the spine and is associated with HLA B27.

This test is useful in distinguishing Ankylosing Spondylitis from other types of arthritis. Supplemental tests are often ordered to provide a clear diagnosis. These include the ESR (Sedimentation Rate, Modified Westergren), CRP (C-Reactive Protein) and/or the RA (Rheumatoid Arthritis) Factor tests. These tests and the HLA B27 are featured in the Arthritis Advanced Panel.
