The Cytomegalovirus (CMV) DNA Quantitative PCR Test is a sophisticated diagnostic tool used to detect and measure the amount of CMV DNA in a patient’s blood or other body fluids. This test is particularly crucial for individuals with weakened immune systems, such as organ transplant recipients or HIV patients, as CMV can cause serious health issues in these populations. The test employs the Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) technique, which amplifies small segments of DNA to a detectable level, allowing for the precise quantification of the virus in the sample.

At DNA Labs UAE, this test is offered at a cost of 1200 AED. The facility is equipped with state-of-the-art technology and staffed by professionals who specialize in molecular diagnostic techniques, ensuring accurate and reliable results. The quantitative nature of the test not only confirms the presence of CMV but also provides vital information on the viral load, which is crucial for monitoring the infection’s progression and guiding treatment decisions.

Test Details

The CMV DNA quantitative PCR test is a highly sensitive diagnostic tool used to monitor CMV infection in immunocompromised individuals. It involves extracting DNA from the patient’s sample and using a technique called polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to amplify and detect the CMV DNA. This allows for the measurement of the amount of CMV DNA present in the sample, usually reported as the number of CMV DNA copies per milliliter of blood or other fluid.

This test is commonly used in clinical settings to assess the effectiveness of antiviral treatment, determine the risk of CMV disease progression, and guide decisions regarding therapy initiation or adjustment. However, it should be noted that the CMV DNA quantitative PCR test is not a screening test for CMV infection in the general population. It is primarily used in specific clinical situations where CMV infection is suspected or in individuals at high risk for CMV-related complications. The test results should be interpreted in conjunction with the patient’s clinical presentation and other laboratory findings.
