About test
What does HELICOBACTER PYLORI - IGM measure?
This blood test measures IgM antibodies to Helicobacter pylori, a bacterium associated with infection of the stomach lining. It may be used as part of an evaluation when a healthcare professional suspects a recent or current immune response to H. pylori. Results should be interpreted with symptoms, medical history, and, when needed, other H. pylori tests, as antibody levels may not always indicate active infection.
