Platelet Antigen Genetic Typing

Maryland rates for HCPCS 81108

Genetic test on a blood sample that determines which version of a particular platelet surface marker a person carries. These markers matter when one person's immune system reacts against another's platelets — in a pregnancy, after a transfusion, or when donor platelets have to be matched. The result is read from the DNA rather than from the platelets themselves.
