The Rheumatoid Factor (RA Factor) Test is a blood test used to detect the presence of Rheumatoid Factor antibodies in the serum. RA Factor is an autoantibody (an antibody directed against the body's own tissues) that specifically targets the Fc portion of the IgG antibody.
The presence of RA Factor is a key serological marker, primarily used in conjunction with clinical symptoms to diagnose Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA), a chronic autoimmune disease characterized by painful inflammation of the joints.
At Augmentum Diagnostics, an NABL Accredited Lab in Delhi, including our location near Dwarka, we provide accurate immunology and serology testing to aid in the diagnosis of autoimmune and inflammatory conditions.
