About the Test
This test measures IgG antibodies to Mycoplasma pneumoniae, a common bacterial cause of chest infections and so-called atypical or walking pneumonia. IgG reflects past exposure or a later stage of infection and can support diagnosis when paired with clinical findings or a rising level over time. It is often used to investigate a lingering cough or atypical respiratory illness.
What is it? A blood test measuring IgG antibodies to Mycoplasma pneumoniae, a cause of atypical pneumonia.
