What does Ascitic fluid analysis with ADA - INLAB measure?
This test analyses ascitic fluid, the fluid that can collect in the abdomen, including measurement of adenosine deaminase (ADA). It may be used to help assess the cause of fluid accumulation and support evaluation for conditions associated with inflammation or infection, including possible tuberculosis involvement. Results are interpreted along with other ascitic fluid findings, medical history, examination, and imaging where relevant.
