What is Mycoplasma Pneumoniae IgG (Quantitative)?
This blood test measures the specific amount (quantitative) of IgG antibodies against Mycoplasma pneumoniae. IgG antibodies develop later in an infection and can indicate a past infection or long-term immunity to this common cause of "walking pneumonia."
Why is this test important?
A quantitative IgG test helps assess past exposure or immunity to Mycoplasma pneumoniae. Rising IgG levels in paired samples can also indicate a recent infection, aiding in the diagnosis of atypical pneumonia and guiding treatment decisions.
How to Prepare
