I can't really do that. It would need to be included on your ANA lab report. The lab tech would examine your ANA pattern and determine which of the ICAP patterns matched. The AC codes are based on scientific consensus of what the various cellular patterns mean reached by members of ICAP.

But the AC codes are only helpful to narrow down a diagnosis, which it sounds like you already have. 🙂
