Food Allergy Testing for
Upper West Side Patients

What is the Basophil Activation Test (BAT)?

The Basophil Activation Test is an advanced blood test that measures how your immune cells react to specific food allergens. BAT provides real world functional data that adds clarity beyond standard IgE testing. For Upper West Side patients, BAT is available at our Upper East Side clinic and plays a critical role in guiding safe, evidence-based treatment decisions.
