AMA Liver Screening Test Price | Lahalak
The cornerstone for early diagnosis of primary biliary cholangitis, detecting the disease before symptoms appear, slowing its progression and effectively protecting liver functions.
Scientific name: Anti-Mitochondrial Antibody (AMA) Screening
A serological test detects autoantibodies directed against mitochondrial antigens (AMAs), particularly against pyruvate dehydrogenase 2 (PDC-E2). These antibodies are highly specific for diagnosing primary biliary cholangitis (PBC), appearing in 90–95% of cases. AMA titers are typically elevated (>1:40) in PBC and often predict more severe disease.
