The Rickettsia Antibody Test Panel with Reflex To Titers test contains 1 test with 4 biomarkers .

IMPORTANT - This is a Reflex Test - If additinal  testing is required aditional fees for the test performed will be charged.

If Rickettsia (RMSF) screen is detected, IgG or IgM, the appropriate Titer will be performed at an additional charge (CPT code(s) 86757 per titer performed).


If Rickettsia (Typhus Fever) screen is detected, IgG or IgM, the appropriate Titer will be performed at an additional charge (CPT code(s) 86757 per titer performed).

Antigen-specific IgG and IgM titers allow rapid diagnosis of infection by organisms within either of the two major groups of Rickettsia. The spotted fever group includes R. rickettsia (Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever) and R. akari (Rickettsial pox). The typhus group includes R. typhi (endemic/maurine typhus) and R. prowazeki (epidemic typhus).
