HEV Viral Load Quantitative Test
At DNA Labs UAE, we offer the HEV Viral Load Quantitative Test to measure the amount of Hepatitis E virus (HEV) present in a patient’s blood. This laboratory test helps in diagnosing and monitoring HEV infection.
Test Details
The HEV Viral Load Quantitative Test is a specialized test performed in our Genetics department. It involves taking a blood sample from the patient and analyzing it for the presence of HEV genetic material (RNA). The test uses a technique called Real Time PCR to amplify and detect the viral RNA. The results of the test are reported as a numerical value, indicating the amount of HEV present in the blood.
Components and Price
The cost of the HEV Viral Load Quantitative Test is AED 1700.0. The test can be performed on Whole Blood, Serum, Plasma, or Stool samples.
Report Delivery
Once the sample is received, the report will be delivered within the 3rd working day via email (within 36 hours) or on phone (within 24 hours).
Pre Test Information
Prior to the test, patients are required to sign a Consent document and bring any clinical history related to the HEV infection.
Doctor and Test Department
The HEV Viral Load Quantitative Test is conducted by our experienced Physicians in our Genetics department.
HEV Infection and Symptoms
HEV is a virus that can cause hepatitis, which is an inflammation of the liver. Common symptoms of HEV infection include fatigue, loss of appetite, jaundice, and abdominal pain.
Importance of the Test
The HEV Viral Load Quantitative Test is primarily used to monitor the progression of HEV infection and assess the effectiveness of antiviral treatment. It also helps determine the risk of transmission to others, as individuals with a higher viral load are more likely to spread the virus.
Please note that the HEV Viral Load Quantitative Test is a specialized test that is typically performed in a reference laboratory. It is not a routine test and is generally reserved for individuals with suspected or confirmed HEV infection who require further evaluation and management.
