Hepatitis refers to inflammation of the liver, most commonly caused by viral infections (hepatitis A, B, C, D, and E). The different types vary in their mode of transmission, severity, and long-term health consequences.
Blood tests can detect antibodies and antigens related to hepatitis viruses, helping to determine current or past infection, immunity status, and, where relevant, viral load.
What the Hepatitis E RNA (PCR) Measures
- Viral antibodies — indicating current, past, or resolved infection
- Viral antigens — indicating active infection
- Immunity status — e.g. following vaccination against hepatitis A or B
When This Test May Be Helpful
- Exposure or potential exposure to hepatitis viruses
- Pre-travel health assessment
- Occupational health screening (e.g. healthcare workers)
- Checking immunity following vaccination
- Unexplained liver enzyme abnormalities
- Routine screening for at-risk individuals
- As part of a broader sexual health screen
Understanding Your Results
Results are typically available within 2 weeks" and are delivered securely.
Your results will indicate whether antibodies or antigens for specific hepatitis viruses have been detected. A positive antibody result may indicate current infection, past infection, or immunity from vaccination, depending on the specific markers tested.
If your results suggest active hepatitis infection, prompt medical follow-up is important. We recommend discussing your results with your GP, who can arrange further investigation and referral if needed.
Important Information
