Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

Antiphospholipid antibodies are autoantibodies directed against phospholipid-binding proteins. Among these groups of antibodies, lupus anticoagulant (LA) and anticardiolipin antibodies (aCL)

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Diagnostic Test: Ultrasound with Doppler and 3D technology

Detailed Description

APLS can be primary when no evidence of autoimmune disease is found, or secondary to autoimmune processes like systemic lupus erythematous (SLE) in a 40% of the cases.
