What is Bartonella Antibody Profile?

The Bartonella Antibody Profile test checks for antibodies against Bartonella bacteria in your blood. These bacteria can cause various infections, including cat scratch disease, and this test helps determine if you have been exposed to them.

Why is this test important?

This test is important for diagnosing Bartonellosis, especially when symptoms like unexplained fever, swollen lymph nodes, or heart valve infections (endocarditis) are present. Identifying the infection helps guide appropriate treatment and management.

How to Prepare

No special preparation required.
