Clinical Significance
Assessing T-cell function in patients on immunosuppressive therapy, inculding solid-organ transplant patients.
Evaluating patients suspected of having impairment in cellular immunity.
Evaluation of T-cell function in patients with primary immunodeficiencies, either cellular (DiGeorge syndrome, T-negative severe combined immunodeficiency [SCID], etc) or combined T- and B-cell immunodeficiencies (T- and B- negative SCID, Wiskott Aldrich syndrome, ataxia telangiectasia, common variable immunodeficiency, among others) where T-cell function may be impaired.
Evaluation of T-cell function in patients with secondary immunodeficiency, either disease related or iatrogenic.
Evaluation of recovery of T-cell function and competence following bone marrow transplantation or hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.
This test is NOT intended for assessment of maternal engraftment.
