What it measures

  • Elm-specific IgE antibody level — Reflects the amount of IgE antibody in your blood that binds to elm tree pollen
  • Total IgE (if included) — Reflects overall IgE antibody level, which can be influenced by many factors
  • Qualitative interpretation — Indicates whether the result is considered negative or positive based on the lab's cutoff

What the test involves

How results are reported
