LOINC description : This panel contains quantitative and ordinal results for the detection of anti-neutrophil
cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCAs) levels in serum by immunofluorescence methods. ANCAs
are a group of auto-antibodies directed against antigens in the cytoplasm of neutrophil
granulocytes and monocytes. They are associated with a number of autoimmune disorders,
including systemic vasculitis. This test may be performed to monitor therapy with
mycophenolate mofetil (trade names: CellCept, Myfortic), an immunosuppressive agent
used in organ transplantation.;
