Human Papillomavirus 16 and 18 HPV Viral Load Quantitative Test
At DNA Labs UAE, we offer the Human Papillomavirus 16 and 18 HPV Viral Load Quantitative Test at a cost of AED 1530.0. This test is designed to measure the amount of HPV DNA in a person’s body, specifically focusing on the high-risk types 16 and 18 associated with the development of cervical cancer and other types of cancer.
Test Details
The Human Papillomavirus (HPV) viral load quantitative test is a laboratory test that provides valuable information about the severity of an HPV infection. It measures the viral load of HPV types 16 and 18, which can help healthcare providers determine the appropriate course of treatment or monitoring for the individual.
This test is typically performed on samples collected from the cervix in women or from the penis or anus in men. In cases of oral HPV infection, samples can also be collected from the throat or mouth. The test utilizes Real Time PCR method to accurately measure the viral load.
Pre Test Information
Prior to undergoing the Human Papillomavirus 16 and 18 HPV Viral Load Quantitative Test, patients are required to sign a consent document and provide any relevant clinical history. This information is crucial for a comprehensive assessment of the test results.
Report Delivery
Once the sample is collected, the report will be delivered within the 3rd working day via email (within 36 hours) and can also be obtained over the phone (within 24 hours).
Test Department
The Human Papillomavirus 16 and 18 HPV Viral Load Quantitative Test is conducted in our Genetics department, overseen by our experienced physicians.
When is the Test Recommended?
The HPV viral load quantitative test is not routinely performed as part of regular HPV screening or testing. It is typically reserved for specific situations, such as monitoring the response to treatment in individuals with HPV-related cancers or assessing the risk of developing cervical cancer in certain high-risk populations.
Conclusion
The Human Papillomavirus 16 and 18 HPV Viral Load Quantitative Test is an essential tool for healthcare providers in assessing the severity of an HPV infection. By measuring the viral load of high-risk HPV types 16 and 18, this test can assist in making informed decisions about treatment and monitoring for individuals with HPV infections.

Test Details |
The Human Papillomavirus (HPV) viral load quantitative test is a laboratory test that measures the amount of HPV DNA in a person’s body. Specifically, it measures the viral load of HPV types 16 and 18, which are high-risk types of HPV associated with the development of cervical cancer and other types of cancer. This test is typically performed on samples collected from the cervix in women or from the penis or anus in men. It can also be performed on samples collected from the throat or mouth in cases of oral HPV infection. The HPV viral load quantitative test can provide important information about the severity of an HPV infection. A high viral load may indicate a more active and potentially more dangerous infection, while a low viral load may suggest a less active infection. This information can help healthcare providers determine the appropriate course of treatment or monitoring for the individual. It’s important to note that the HPV viral load quantitative test is not routinely performed as part of regular HPV screening or testing. It is typically reserved for specific situations, such as monitoring the response to treatment in individuals with HPV-related cancers or assessing the risk of developing cervical cancer in certain high-risk populations. Overall, the HPV viral load quantitative test provides valuable information about the amount of HPV DNA present in the body, specifically for HPV types 16 and 18. It can assist healthcare providers in making informed decisions about treatment and monitoring for individuals with HPV infections. |
