HCV Total Antibody Test Overview

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is one of the five types of hepatitis virus which causes hepatitis infection. HCV leads to liver damage and inflammation. The disease spreads due to exposure to contaminated blood, such as exposure by sharing personal items, like razors, with the infected person, having sex with an infected person, or sharing needles with intravenous drug users. It can sometimes spread from the mother to a baby during childbirth, though it is less common.

Most people with hepatitis do not notice any symptoms, due to which the disease remains undetected. The infection does not show symptoms until the liver is damaged and affects liver function. The best way to detect the disease is to screen people with high risk.
