Phospholipid IgG
The Phospholipid IgG test measures IgG antibodies directed against phospholipids, which are essential components of cell membranes and play an important role in blood clotting processes.
IgG phospholipid antibodies are often associated with autoimmune conditions such as antiphospholipid syndrome, which can increase the risk of blood clots and pregnancy-related complications.
IgG antibodies typically reflect longer-term immune activity and may persist over time.
This test is usually requested as part of a broader phospholipid or antiphospholipid antibody panel.
Results are interpreted in conjunction with clinical history, symptoms, and other laboratory findings.
