What does IMMUNOGLOBULIN A (IGA) measure?
This test measures the level of immunoglobulin A (IgA), an antibody that helps protect mucosal surfaces such as the airways and digestive tract. It may be used to evaluate immune system function, investigate recurrent infections, or support assessment of certain inflammatory, autoimmune, liver, or intestinal conditions. Results are interpreted alongside symptoms, medical history, and other laboratory findings.
