About Hepatitis Tests & Panels | HAV, HBV, HCV Lab Testing in Bay City
Hepatitis testing relies on a combination of antibody and antigen assays, each answering a different question about exposure and current infection.
Hepatitis A testing typically measures IgM antibodies, which appear during acute infection, and IgG antibodies, which indicate past infection or vaccination and lasting immunity.
Hepatitis B testing uses a panel of markers: surface antigen signals current infection, surface antibody signals immunity, and core antibody signals past or ongoing exposure. Additional markers such as e-antigen help gauge infectivity.
Hepatitis C testing begins with an antibody screen; a reactive result is followed by a nucleic acid test that detects viral RNA directly and confirms whether infection is active.
