Assay identifies most known membranous nephropathy antigens: Sanjeev Sethi, M.D., Ph.D.

Sanjeev Sethi, M.D., Ph.D., explains how Mayo Clinic Laboratories' new mass spectrometry test (Mayo ID: MSMN) identifies most antigens now known to cause membranous nephropathy. Precise identification of antigens is important for optimal management of this serious kidney disease.(00:32)Would you mind telling us a little bit about yourself and your background? (01:58)Would you give us an overview of membranous nephropathy?  (07:14)Could you tell us a little bit about this new assay? (14:29)Could you give a little example of how a clinician might use this information to treat their patients differently than how they would've in the past?
