Service Providers for HCVAg(Quantitative)
The HCV Ag Quantitative Test measures the amount of Hepatitis C virus (HCV) core antigen in the blood to assess active infection and monitor viral replication. This test is used for early detection of HCV, monitoring treatment efficacy, and evaluating disease progression. A blood sample is drawn from a vein, and no special preparation, such as fasting, is required. Results are reported in units, with higher levels indicating active infection. The procedure is low-risk, with mild discomfort or bruising at the blood draw site. Accurate results guide treatment plans, including antiviral therapy, and help track the virus's response to medication.
