About Hepatitis A, B & C Test Panel in St. Charles
Hepatitis A, B, and C are separate viruses that share a target: the liver.
Hepatitis A spreads mainly through contaminated food or water and typically causes an acute, short-term infection. Hepatitis B and C spread through contact with infected blood or bodily fluids and can become chronic, quietly damaging the liver over time.
The panel relies on serological markers. Antibodies such as anti-HAV IgM indicate a recent Hepatitis A infection, while Hepatitis B surface antigen and core antibodies help distinguish current from past or resolved Hepatitis B. For Hepatitis C, antibody screening is the standard first step, often followed by a confirmatory RNA test if the antibody result is reactive.
Because these viruses can be present without obvious symptoms, testing provides objective information that symptoms alone cannot. Results are interpreted together, not in isolation, and a reactive screening result may require additional testing to confirm or clarify the finding.
