Ri Antibody (Neuronal antigen for Paraneoplastic syndromes)

The Ri antibody test is pivotal in detecting specific antibodies linked to paraneoplastic syndromes, a group of rare disorders triggered by cancerous tumours prompting the immune system to attack specific body parts, notably the nervous system.

Ri antibodies, also called ANNA-2 antibodies, are among the neuronal nuclear antibodies found in individuals with paraneoplastic syndromes, often associated with cancers like breast cancer and small-cell lung cancer.

Identifying these antibodies assists doctors in pinpointing the specific paraneoplastic syndrome involved, aiding tailored treatment strategies. However, the Ri antibody test isn't used in isolation; it's part of a comprehensive series of tests and evaluations to diagnose and manage paraneoplastic syndromes. For details about the ri antibody test price or insights into the Anti Ri Antibody Test, consult healthcare experts and take a test at sprint diagnostic centres for a comprehensive approach to managing these syndromes.

Frequently Asked Questions

Your doctor might suggest a Ri antibody test if you're experiencing unexplained neurological symptoms. These could involve issues with movement, coordination, vision, memory, and more.

A positive result indicates the presence of Ri antibodies in your blood, potentially linked to paraneoplastic syndromes associated with specific cancers like breast cancer and small cell lung cancer.

The Ri antibody test uses a blood sample collected by a healthcare professional through a simple arm vein puncture.

As with most blood draws, risks are minimal—light-headedness, minor bruising, or infection at the puncture site are possible but rare.

No, this test is specifically for diagnosing paraneoplastic syndromes, not determining cancer type. Further tests are necessary to precisely identify the type and location of any cancer.
