Anti-TPO Antibody Test in Pune

What is Anti-TPO Antibody Test

The Anti-TPO Antibody Test is a blood test that measures the levels of antibodies against thyroid peroxidase (TPO) in the blood. TPO is an enzyme found in the thyroid gland that is essential for the production of thyroid hormones. The test is performed by drawing blood from a vein in the arm, and the sample is then sent to a laboratory for analysis. Elevated levels of anti-TPO antibodies indicate an autoimmune disorder affecting the thyroid gland.
