Anti CMV Avidity IgG

About Test

Anti-CMV (Cytomegalovirus) Avidity IgG test is a laboratory test that measures the strength of the IgG (Immunoglobulin G) antibodies against CMV in a person's blood. CMV is a common viral infection that can cause a range of symptoms, including flu-like symptoms, fatigue, and others. In some cases, CMV can cause more serious problems, particularly in people with weakened immune systems.

The Anti-CMV Avidity IgG test is performed using a blood sample, which is analyzed for the presence of IgG antibodies against CMV. The test measures the "avidity" of these antibodies, which refers to the strength of the bond between the antibody and the virus.

The results of the Anti-CMV Avidity IgG test can provide valuable information for the diagnosis and management of CMV infection. A high avidity result can indicate a long-standing, past CMV infection, while a low avidity result can indicate a recent or ongoing CMV infection. The results of the test can also inform medical management decisions, including the use of antiviral medications to manage symptoms and prevent further complications.
