Description
Test for IgG antibodies to phospholipids (cardiolipin, phosphatidylserine, phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidylic acid and β-2-glycoprotein I) is a test for screening for antiphospholipid syndrome in the presence of venous thrombosis, thrombosis, venous thrombosis.
An increase in IgG antibodies in the body indicates a chronic process.
The test is used to confirm antiphospholipid syndrome.
