Celiac disease is a chronic inflammatory disease of the intestine, triggered by the ingestion of gluten or related proteins found in wheat, barley, oats and rye. As a result, total or subtotal atrophy of the intestinal villi occurs in genetically predisposed individuals, preventing the intestinal tract from absorbing nutrients properly. How do I know if I have celiac condition? There is a wide range of initial screening tests, from genetic testing for celiac predisposition to serological tests that detect antibodies. All of them can contribute to an approximation and guide in the diagnosis of celiac disease, which must always be confirmed by your doctor through the corresponding complementary tests, such as an intestinal biopsy. What are the highlights of the rapid tests? It is a simple,easy and minimum invasive procedure, using only capillary blood collection (through finger punction). Results in 15 minutes. It can be used as a guide for diagnostic orientation towards more specific confirmatory tests. Results interpretation can be done both visually or automatically, using our OPERON lateral flow reader.
