The Parietal Cell Antibody (GPCA) test, is also known as the PCA test. It is a laboratory test. It is used to detect the presence of parietal cell antibodies in a patient's serum. The test is performed using an Indirect Fluorescence Assay (IFA) method.

The IFA method is regarded as a highly sensitive and specific test for the detection of parietal cell antibodies. It is regarded as the gold standard for the diagnosis of autoimmune diseases like pernicious anemia. Pernicious anemia is an autoimmune disease. It is characterized by the eradication of the parietal cells in the stomach.
