Blood Test
Components: This test looks for antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA) in a sample of your blood. Antibodies are proteins that your immune system makes to fight foreign substances, such as viruses and bacteria.
C-ANCA has been demonstrated in several lung diseases; however, the most common cause is granulomatosis with polyangiitis, formerly known as Wegener’s granulomatosis. It is a common practice to label c-ANCA with granulomatosis with polyangiitis. Positive ANCA results must be confirmed with ELISA tests.
