Results & Interpretation
A negative or nonreactive result means you don't likely have syphilis.
Shortly after infection, a test may not yet show any antibodies. This is known as a false negative
Positive results are given as a ratio in titers.
If the screening test is positive, the next step is to confirm the diagnosis with a more specific test for syphilis, such as FTA-ABS
