The Endomysial Antibody (EMA) IgA Test is a highly specific blood test used in the diagnosis of Celiac Disease (CD). Celiac Disease is an autoimmune disorder in which the ingestion of gluten leads to damage in the small intestine.
EMA antibodies target the connective tissue (endomysium) surrounding the smooth muscle fibers. The true target of the EMA is the enzyme Tissue Transglutaminase (TG). The EMA IgA test is renowned for its high specificity in identifying active Celiac Disease.
At Augmentum Diagnostics, an NABL Accredited Lab in Delhi, we provide accurate and reliable EMA IgA testing, a crucial step in the diagnostic pathway for Celiac Disease.
