About Hepatitis Tests & Panels | HAV, HBV, HCV Lab Testing in Mchenry
Hepatitis testing combines direct viral markers with indirect measures of liver health.
Hepatitis A, B, and C are distinct viruses that share a target: the liver. Each has its own set of laboratory markers, and a panel typically includes several of them so that current infection, past exposure, and immune status can be distinguished.
Direct markers identify the virus itself or the body's response to it. Hepatitis A is commonly assessed through IgM and IgG antibodies. Hepatitis B testing often includes surface antigen, surface antibody, core antibody, and sometimes e-antigen or viral DNA. Hepatitis C testing usually begins with an antibody screen and, when reactive, a confirmatory RNA test.
Indirect markers reflect liver function and injury. Alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, bilirubin, and alkaline phosphatase are frequently added to a hepatitis panel because they reveal inflammation or impaired liver performance even when viral markers are not definitive.
