What is Aspergillosis IgG antibodies?
This test checks for IgG antibodies, which are produced by your immune system in response to an infection with Aspergillus, a common type of mold. IgG antibodies typically appear later in an infection and can indicate a past or chronic exposure to Aspergillus. It helps assess your body's long-term immune response to this fungus.
Why is this test important?
Detecting IgG antibodies can help diagnose chronic forms of aspergillosis, such as chronic pulmonary aspergillosis or allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA). Elevated levels suggest an ongoing or past infection and are crucial for monitoring disease activity and treatment effectiveness, especially in individuals with weakened immune systems or pre-existing lung conditions.
