The criteria for the diagnosis of celiac disease are changing, but in adults, diagnosis still depends on the presence of duodenal villous atrophy while the patient is on a gluten-containing diet, along with findings from serology analysis.

In this review, we highlight the incidence and prevalence of celiac disease in the elderly, the patterns of clinical presentation, diagnosis, and the most frequent complications, with the aim of increasing awareness and reducing the diagnostic delay of celiac disease even in the elderly population.
It's important to be tested for celiac disease before trying a gluten-free diet. Eliminating gluten from your diet might make the results of blood tests appear in the standard range. If the results of these tests indicate celiac disease, one of the following tests will likely be ordered: Endoscopy.
10 cze 2014 · Abstract. A multidisciplinary panel of 18 physicians and 3 non-physicians from eight countries (Sweden, UK, Argentina, Australia, Italy, Finland, Norway and the USA) reviewed the literature on diagnosis and management of adult coeliac disease (CD). This paper presents the recommendations of the British Society of Gastroenterology.
Diagnosis of CD requires duodenal biopsy when the patient is on a gluten-containing diet and for the vast majority of adult patients also positive serology. (Grade B) Biopsy remains essential for the diagnosis of adult CD and cannot be replaced by serology. Follow-up should aim at strict adherence to a gluten-free diet. (Grade B) INTRODUCTION.
Best Practice Advice 1: Serology is a crucial component of the detection and diagnosis of CD, particularly tissue transglutaminase–immunoglobulin A (TG2-IgA), IgA testing, and less frequently, endomysial IgA testing.
Typically, a physician will request a blood test and, if the test is indicative of celiac disease, will then conduct a scoping procedure to obtain a biopsy of tissue from the small intestine. This remains the gold standard procedure to confirm diagnosis.
