Webinars

IGeneX continues to be at the forefront of research and development of diagnostic tests for Lyme disease, Relapsing Fever, and other tick-borne diseases. Through these webinars, our mission is to arm practitioners with the information they need to provide the best care and diagnosis for their patients.

The Connection Between Mental Health and Lyme Disease

Diagnosing, testing, and treating patients with mental health challenges 

Lyme disease is a significant public health concern that has effects far beyond its well-known physical manifestations. It also significantly impacts mental health, adding another layer to its profound influence. The impact of Lyme disease on mental health is significant, with links to conditions from depression to dementia and even suicide. Early detection and treatment are crucial to prevent escalation.

Culture Testing to Support the Diagnosis of Tick-Borne Diseases

View actual patient data that will help you in your practice!

Join Dr. Joseph Burrascano and Dr. Jyotsna Shah for an in-depth webinar on culturing for tick-borne diseases. Culture testing is widely considered to be the “gold standard” for diagnosis of tick-borne illnesses. For many years, tick-borne disease cultures were too expensive and tedious to be practical for laboratory use. Until now. After many years of research and development, IGeneX is pleased to introduce Culture-Enhanced PCR for all of the major tick-borne illnesses.

Testing with IGeneX

How To Get Started, Order Tests, And Understand Results

Since 1991, IGeneX has worked with nearly 40,000 doctors from all across the world, providing high quality testing for more diseases, using more methods, to help doctors understand the entire picture of their patients. In this webinar, learn how you can get started using IGeneX. We cover everything from getting set up with an account, to understanding how to choose the most appropriate tests for all the major tick-borne diseases.

Advantages of Using IGeneX for Tick-Borne Disease Testing

Highlighting our Advanced ImmunoBlot Technology

The IGeneX ImmunoBlot sets the standard for tick-borne disease testing, and is now available for four diseases: Lyme disease, Bartonella, Babesia, and Tick-Borne Relapsing Fever.

Common Lyme testing has a sensitivity of just above 50% because it detects only one Borrelia species, B. burgdorferi B31. The IGeneX ImmunoBlot detects antibodies to eight different species of Borrelia.

Diagnosing and Treating Lyme Disease and the Co-Infections

Join two of the most knowledgeable and influential members of the tick-borne disease community, Dr. Joseph Burrascano, Jr. MD and Dr. Tom Moorcroft, DO, for an immersive three-hour webinar on the diagnosis and treatment of tick-borne diseases. Topics include how to clinically diagnose Lyme disease and the co-infections, the most accurate testing options for each disease, custom treatment protocols, patient case studies and more.

Introducing Bartonella ImmunoBlots

Advanced Laboratory Testing to Detect Bartonella.

You may already be familiar with IGeneX’s ImmunoBlots for Lyme disease, Tick-Borne Relapsing Fever, and COVID-19. Now, IGeneX is happy to announce that Bartonellosis has joined the ImmunoBlot revolution. ImmunoBlots use recombinant antigens to increase sensitivity, specificity and extend species coverage. They effectively replace the Western blot.

Reflex Testing for Borreliosis

Advanced Laboratory Testing for Lyme disease and Tick-Borne Relapsing Fever (TBRF).

Borreliosis can refer to two distinct but similar diseases: Lyme disease and Tick-Borne Relapsing Fever (TBRF). Lyme and TBRF present significant challenges to patients and the medical establishment alike. Each disease is spread by several different subspecies of Borrelia, both share symptoms that can make diagnosis difficult, and both are growing in prevalence and spreading geographically.

Is it Lyme Disease, or TBRF?

The Importance of Testing for Tick-Borne Relapsing Fever​

Tick-Borne Relapsing Fever (TBRF) is often considered a Lyme disease imitator because both TBRF and Lyme sufferers display many similar symptoms. Moreover, some of the Borrelia that cause TBRF are transmitted by the same ticks that transmit B. burgdorferi, the causative agent of Lyme disease. Therefore, it is important for physicians to test for both TBRF and Lyme disease.

Next-Generation Lyme Disease Testing

Are you using the most accurate testing on your patients?

Learn about the latest advancements in Lyme disease testing, including the IgX Broad Coverage Lyme Assays and the Lyme MultiSpecies ImmunoBlots. Special attention will be paid to the Lyme MultiSpecies ImmunoBlots, which have become the new standard in Lyme disease diagnosis.

Post-Acute Covid-19, or TBD Reactivation?

Advanced Laboratory Testing to Detect COVID-19.

Often called post-acute COVID-19 syndrome, some patients experience ongoing symptoms preventing them from feeling normal even after recovering from the initial illness. But what if these patients are not dealing with COVID-19, but rather a tick-borne illness? In fact, their condition sounds similar to chronic Lyme disease, a condition that affects thousands of people a year.

Bartonella For Clinicians: Unravelling A Clinical Dilemma

In this webinar, Dr. Joseph J. Burrascano Jr. discusses Bartonella biology and the challenges of testing for Bartonellosis. He also covers the current tests and their limitations, as well as look at newly-developed techniques.

The Benefits of Lyme ImmunoBlots Tests

Are you using the latest test available? 

Watch as Dr. Joseph J. Burrascano Jr. discusses the benefits of testing with the Lyme ImmunoBlot. We cover how it is made, the limitations it overcomes, and its advantages and comparison to the Western Blog.
