Allergen-specific IgE testing
The allergen-specific IgE antibody test is a blood test. Several allergens can be tested from blood sample. This test is recommended to be performed besides the traditional clinical skin test as well. After anamnesis, food panels (inhalation panels) are chosen, available at Aranyklinika. In the case of diagnosed allergy, there is a possibility to test for cross-allergy, what can lead to improved quality of life.
