The Anti-Mog test is a laboratory test that measures the levels of anti-myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (anti-MOG) antibodies in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). MOG is a protein found in the myelin sheath that coats nerve fibres. The test is primarily used to diagnose disorders related to the central nervous system (CNS), including multiple sclerosis (MS) and neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD).

Symptoms associated with CNS disorders include:

  • Muscle weakness or paralysis
  • Vision loss or double vision
  • Numbness or tingling in limbs
  • Dizziness or loss of balance
  • Difficulty with coordination and movement

Patients who are experiencing symptoms of CNS disorders should opt for an Anti-Mog test. The test can help provide an accurate diagnosis, which can lead to the timely treatment and management of symptoms.

For this test, a CSF sample is needed. This is collected under expert supervision. Usually, a CSF sample is collected using a process known as lumbar puncture. The patient is made to lie on their side, and a needle inserted into their lower back (between specific vertebrae) is used to collect the CSF sample. The patient may feel slight discomfort during the procedure.

Once the sample is collected, it is sent to a laboratory for analysis. In the lab, the sample is tested for anti-MOG antibodies using different methods such as enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).

Individuals who receive a positive diagnosis may have various options such as:

  • Doctor consultation for potential implications of the diagnosis
  • Initiation of appropriate treatment and management
  • Regular follow-up visits with specialists

The Anti-Mog test price may be on the higher side owing to the sensitivity of the sample collection procedure. However, with a name as trusted as Apollo 24/7, individuals can expect accurate results and easy bookings. Patients can book an appointment online through the Apollo 24/7 website or app. The results are typically available within 24-48 hours after the sample is collected. The benefits of opting for the Anti-Mog test early include:

  • Early detection and diagnosis
  • Timely treatment
  • Reduced risk of complications
