# Scallop

> This test measures the level of specific antibodies in your blood that react to proteins found in scallops. It helps show whether your immune system is sensitized to this shellfish, which is useful for investigating symptoms like hives, swelling, or stomach pain after eating seafood. These results help doctors distinguish a potential scallop allergy from other food sensitivities or reactions to different types of shellfish. However, a positive result alone does not predict the severity of a future reaction and does not confirm a diagnosis without a review of your medical history.
