Casandra Test Code QD50759Version 1 (DRAFT)
Performing Lab
Myelin‑Associated Glycoprotein (MAG) Antibody (IgM), EIA
Also known as: MAG Antibody
Clinical Use
Order TestUse
Detection of IgM antibodies against myelin‑associated glycoprotein can aid in the evaluation of immune‑mediated peripheral neuropathies, particularly distal acquired demyelinating symmetric (DADS) neuropathy and paraproteinemic neuropathies; results should be interpreted in the proper clinical and electrophysiological context.
