How does the Celiac Disease Screening Test compare to the one performed in a doctor’s office?

The instruments and methods used by our laboratories are similar—and often exactly the same—as those used by a doctor’s office. Our at-home sample collection methods, like dried blood spot and saliva, have been widely used for decades.
