Does ana profiles test show autoimmune pancreatitis am 19 yrs old.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No single test can : Itself establish the diagnosis of autoimmune pancreatitis. Imaging tests (like MRI read by MD with experience in diagnosis of autoimmune pancreatitis) can be helpful. Blood tests, particularly for igG4, may also help establish diagnosis. finally endoscopic biopsy may help in making the diagnosis. Talk w ur doc to decide on next steps that would be right for your case in establishing diagnosis.
