GastroPanel: advanced test for the diagnosis of gastric diseases
Recurrent ‘stomach ache’ can often be caused by the presence of the Helicobacter pylori (HP) bacterium. This bacterium penetrates the gastric mucosa, causing chronic inflammation in many cases. Chronic inflammation by Helicobacter pylori can lead to serious illnesses such as gastritis, peptic ulcer and gastric cancer.
What is a GastroPanel?
GastroPanel is an innovative test that, through a simple blood sample, provides detailed information on the state of the gastric mucosa, avoiding invasive examinations such as gastroscopy.
For whom is GastroPanel recommended?
- People of all ages with gastric disorders such as pain, heaviness, bloating, early satiety, burning and nausea.
- Individuals over the age of 45 as a screening test.
- Children with disorders of the first part of the digestive tract.
- People with a family history of gastric cancer.
- Elderly people.
- Patients who regularly take cardioaspirin or other gastrolesive drugs.
How does the GastroPanel test work?
The test is based on the determination of four serological markers:
- Antibodies against Helicobacter pylori
- Pepsinogen I
- Pepsinogen II
- Gastrin 17
These markers make it possible to diagnose gastritis caused by Helicobacter pylori, identify the presence of atrophic gastritis and localise inflammation in the stomach. The GastroPanel test is essential for identifying individuals at risk of developing gastric cancer, peptic ulcer and gastroesophageal reflux. In addition, the test can detect autoimmune atrophic gastritis, often associated with thyroid disease and anaemia, and the risk of Vitamin B12 deficiency disorders
What are the benefits of GastroPanel?
- Non-invasive, simple and painless
- Effective method of prevention
- Easy and safe data interpretation
- Provides indications for possible gastroscopy
- Reduces the use of drugs and related problems
GastroPanel test is an advanced and reliable solution for monitoring and preventing gastric diseases, offering a safe and non-invasive approach to stomach health.
