What is a PIDOT - PRIMARY IMMUNE DEFICIENCY SCREENING PANEL?

The PIDOT – Primary Immune Deficiency Screening Panel is a specialized blood test designed to evaluate immune system function by analyzing different immune cell populations and their activity. It helps identify underlying primary immune deficiencies, which can cause recurrent infections, poor response to vaccines, or autoimmune complications. This test is performed to aid early diagnosis, guide treatment decisions, and monitor immune health, especially in patients with suspected immunodeficiency disorders or unexplained frequent infections.
