What is Adenovirus (Respiraitory) PCR?

The Adenovirus (Respiratory) PCR test detects genetic material from adenoviruses in a respiratory sample. This test is crucial for identifying an active adenovirus infection, which can cause a range of respiratory illnesses from common colds to pneumonia.

Why is this test important?

Early and accurate diagnosis of adenovirus infection helps differentiate it from other respiratory viruses, guiding appropriate patient management and infection control measures. It's particularly important for vulnerable populations like children and immunocompromised individuals.

How to Prepare

No special preparation required. A respiratory swab sample will be collected.
