TB Antigen

Screening for latent or active tuberculosis before starting powerful immunosuppressive medications requires the most accurate diagnostic technology available to prevent a life-threatening systemic infection. As a critical diagnostic tool in our Microbiology department, TB Antigen testing (including advanced Interferon Gamma Release Assays) measures how your white blood cells react to specific Mycobacterium tuberculosis antigens. By leveraging state-of-the-art cellular diagnostic technology, this highly specific blood test eliminates the false positives common with prior BCG vaccinations, offering the definitive clarity needed to safely green-light targeted biological therapies, or initiate essential preventative TB treatments. Widely respected for infectious disease screening across top diagnostic labs in the UAE, DNA Labs guarantees absolute patient confidentiality, uncompromising analytical accuracy, and remarkably fast turnaround times.
