NOVEL DIAGNOSTICS
Abstract
The diagnosis of allergic diseases is of great importance for optimizing treatment and preventing com-plications. Although conventional diagnostic methods such as skin prick tests (SPT) and allergen-spe-cific immunoglobulin E (sIgE) measurements are widely used, they may be insufficient in certain clini-cal situations. In particular, in vitro tests that evaluate the immune response from different perspectives are gaining increasing importance in patients using antihistamines, in those with complex sensitization profiles, or when delayed-type hypersensitivity is suspected.
