ANTI THYROID MICROSOMAL ANTIBODY (AMA) / ANTI THYROID PEROXIDASE ANTIBODY (TPO)

What is an Anti Thyroid Microsomal Antibody (AMA) / Anti Thyroid Peroxidase Antibody (TPO) Test?

An Anti Thyroid Microsomal Antibody (AMA) / Anti Thyroid Peroxidase (TPO) Antibody Test is a blood test that measures antibodies produced by the immune system against thyroid peroxidase (TPO), an enzyme that plays an important role in the production of thyroid hormones.

The immune system generally prevents infections from occurring inside the body. Yet, there are instances where the immune system targets the thyroid glands, resulting in the development of autoimmune thyroid diseases. This test is useful in identifying Hashimoto's thyroiditis and Graves' disease.
Doctors often recommend an Anti TPO Antibody Test in RAISINGHNAGAR when thyroid function tests are abnormal or when symptoms of thyroid disease are present.
