About the test
This test measures the IgE antibody response to rapeseed, helping to identify potential food allergies. It's a precise lab test used alongside other clinical information for diagnosing food allergies.
Who might need this test?
This test is particularly useful for individuals who might not be suitable for skin allergy tests due to reasons like widespread skin disease, recent use of antihistamines, uncooperative behavior, or a high risk of severe allergic reactions.
Understanding Your Results:
A positive result indicates sensitivity to rapeseed but doesn't necessarily mean you'll experience allergic symptoms upon eating it. Only a medical professional can diagnose a food allergy, considering both this test result and your medical history. Remember, not all food sensitivities involve IgE antibodies, so this test isn't the sole determinant of food allergies.
