Accurate and Early Diagnosis for Lupus and Connective Tissue Disease.

Connective tissue diseases (CTDs) can be very hard to diagnose early because symptoms can be vague, inconsistent and/or attributed to other illnesses.

AVISE CTD combines AVISE Lupus, a 10-marker diagnostic test designed to help rule-in or rule-out lupus, with an expanded connective tissue disease panel to aid in the differential diagnosis of other connective tissue diseases.

When combined with your provider's clinical assessment, AVISE CTD can provide the information necessary to help make the right diagnosis. If you're ready to start dealing with the real cause of your symptoms don't wait. Request your AVISE CTD conversation guide to help you speak to your provider about the AVISE CTD test.
