Clinical Use
Order TestUse
Measurement of scallop-specific immunoglobulin E (IgE) antibodies to assess sensitization to scallop. A positive test indicates that a patient has produced IgE antibodies to scallop, suggesting possible allergic sensitization, but does not confirm clinical allergy.
Special Instructions
Not provided.
Limitations
Presence of scallop‑specific IgE indicates sensitization but is not diagnostic of clinical allergy. Many sensitized individuals may tolerate the allergen without symptoms. Results should be interpreted in clinical context.
