Because these viruses share a name but differ in how they spread and how they affect the liver, clinicians often order a combination panel rather than a single marker.
About Hepatitis Tests & Panels | HAV, HBV, HCV Lab Testing in Cedar Falls
Hepatitis A, B, and C are distinct viruses with separate transmission routes and clinical courses, so the appropriate test depends on what is being evaluated.
Hepatitis A spreads mainly through contaminated food or water and causes an acute illness that resolves without becoming chronic. Testing typically looks for IgM antibodies during an active infection or IgG antibodies that indicate past infection or vaccination.
Hepatitis B spreads through blood, sexual contact, and from mother to child during birth. A panel usually includes the surface antigen, surface antibody, and core antibody, which together distinguish an active infection, a resolved infection, and immunity from vaccination.
Hepatitis C spreads primarily through blood exposure and often produces no symptoms for years while quietly damaging the liver. Screening relies on an antibody test, with a follow-up RNA test to confirm whether the virus is currently present.
