Description
| Method: | CLIA |
| Comment: | Combined assay with Anti Tg Antibody (Test Code Z201) is recommended. Anti TPO replaces the earlier Anti Thyroid Microsomal Antibody (TMA) because of greater specificity for the thyroid. |

| Report: | Daily |
| Usage: | Determination of TPO antibody levels is the most sensitive test for detecting autoimmune thyroid disease like Hashimoto thyroiditis (90%), Idiopathic myxedema and Graves disease (60-80%). Presence of TPO antibodies in subclinical hypothyroidism is associated with an increased risk of developing overt hypothyroidism. This assay helps in the diagnosis of thyroid autoimmune disorders and serves as a diagnostic tool in deciding therapy for subclinical hypothyroidism. |
