The Measles (Rubeola) IgG test detects IgG antibodies to the measles virus, indicating past infection or immunity from vaccination. A positive IgG result generally means the individual has protective immunity against measles.
This test is commonly used to confirm immunity for school, employment, healthcare clearance, travel requirements, or prenatal evaluation. It does not diagnose an active measles infection, which is typically assessed with IgM testing or molecular methods when symptoms are present.
