Test Code

The Anti Microsomal Antibodies (Anti-Thyroid Peroxidase / TPO) test measures autoantibodies directed against the thyroid peroxidase enzyme, which plays a key role in thyroid hormone synthesis.
Elevated Anti-TPO levels indicate an autoimmune attack on thyroid tissue and are most commonly associated with Hashimoto’s thyroiditis and Graves’ disease. This test is useful for confirming autoimmune thyroid disease, assessing the cause of hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism, and predicting the risk of future thyroid dysfunction.
Anti-TPO antibodies may be present even before thyroid hormone levels become abnormal, making this test valuable for early detection and clinical correlation.
