When functioning properly, the body's immune system attacks and destroys foreign substances such as bacteria and viruses. In autoimmune diseases, the immune system attacks and destroys the body's normal tissues by producing antibodies that attach to the body's own cells as though they were foreign substances. The antibodies will then damage or destroy the cells. Common autoimmune diseases include Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE or Lupus) and Rheumatoid Arthritis.

Combined with a patient’s symptoms, physical examination and other tests, an ANA screen can help diagnose an autoimmune disease.

Order your ANA screen online for fast results that are low cost and don't require a doctor's note or insurance.
