Celiac and Gluten Sensitivity, Blood Spot
Orderable by Ontario ND
Test
Clinical Utility
The Celiac and Gluten Sensitivity profile from Doctor’s Data helps identify, and differentiate between Celiac disease (CD), non-Celiac gluten sensitivity (NCGS) and wheat allergy by evaluating the serum titers of IgA and IgG for tissue transglutaminase, deamidated gliadin peptide, gliadin, gluten and IgE for wheat.
Antibody tests that indicate possible CD and NCGS will only be accurate if the patient is on a gluten-inclusive diet. The test is also useful for monitoring adherence to a gluten-free diet.
