The body produces antibodies specific to each autoimmune disease; the antibody levels measured in your blood are then used by your doctor to diagnose the disease that is causing your symptoms. Scl-70 antibody is a blood test that is mainly used to diagnose scleroderma, and to monitor your response to treatment.
