Dust Allergy Panel Test in Hyderabad
A Dust Allergy Panel Test is a diagnostic procedure used to identify specific allergens in household dust that trigger allergic reactions, such as dust mites, mold spores, pet dander, and cockroach debris. The test can be conducted through a skin prick test, which shows immediate reactions, or a blood test like ImmunoCAP or RAST, which measures specific IgE antibodies and provides results in 1-2 weeks. Patch tests, where allergens are applied to the skin for 48 hours, are another method, with results available in about a week.
