# Setomelanomma rostrata

> This test detects antibodies in your blood that your immune system creates to fight Setomelanomma rostrata, a type of parasitic worm. It helps doctors investigate the cause of unexplained symptoms, such as skin lumps or swelling, that may be linked to a rare infection. This measurement aids in distinguishing this specific parasite from other worm infections or general inflammatory conditions. However, the test only indicates exposure and cannot determine if an infection is currently active without further evaluation.
