HLA Class I Antibody Identification Panel

Montana rates for HCPCS 86832

Identifies which specific HLA class I markers — the A, B and C tissue types carried on nearly every cell in the body — a person's antibodies are directed against, by testing their serum against a panel carrying many different markers. Knowing the exact targets tells a transplant team which donor tissue types would provoke an immune attack. It maps the antibodies a person already carries rather than testing their blood against one particular donor sample.
