$80.00
Epstein Barr Heterophile Ag ,IgM
The Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV) Heterophile Antigen IgM test detects heterophile antibodies produced during an acute Epstein-Barr virus infection. This test is commonly used as a rapid screening tool for infectious mononucleosis (mono).
It is often ordered when symptoms such as fever, sore throat, fatigue, swollen lymph nodes, or enlarged spleen are present. A positive result suggests a current or recent EBV infection, although negative results do not completely rule out EBV, especially early in the illness. In some cases, additional EBV-specific antibody testing may be recommended for confirmation.
