Nationwide Children's Hospital's Celiac Disease Evaluation

Nationwide Children’s Hospital (NCH) is a referral center for evaluation and management of CD in the US. Since July of 2014, patients with differential diagnosis of CD have undergone tTG testing using QUANTA Flash® chemiluminescence assay (INOVA Diagnostics, Inc., San Diego, CA) which has extended analytical range (see Additional file 1) and superior performance for CD [63 (link)–65 (link)]. In addition, all duodenal biopsies at NCH are evaluated by experience pathologists and subject to clinicopathological consensus review.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
