Available Separately Components Reference Interval
Yes (0051050) Platelet Antibodies, Indirect None detected.
Yes (0051051) Platelet Antibody Identification - Refer to Platelet Antibodies Indirect (0051050). Platelet antibody detection must be performed first. None detected.

Interpretive Data: See individual components.
Note: If Platelet Antibodies, Indirect result is DETECTED and antibodies directed toward IIb/IIIa glycoproteins are present, then Platelet Antibody Identification will be added. Additional charges apply.
