LE CELL – INLAB

The LE (lupus erythematosus) cell test detects the presence of LE cells, which are a type of white blood cell found in individuals with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). This test is used to diagnose SLE and monitor disease activity. A positive result suggests the presence of LE cells, indicating an autoimmune response against the body’s tissues. The test is valuable for diagnosing SLE, guiding treatment decisions, and monitoring the effectiveness of therapy. It provides important information for managing SLE, preventing complications, and improving patient outcomes.
