What is Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV) Panel?

Tests for Epstein-Barr virus antibodies (VCA IgM, VCA IgG, EBNA IgG, EA IgG) to diagnose infectious mononucleosis and determine infection stage.

Why is this test important?

EBV causes infectious mononucleosis ("mono" or "kissing disease"). The antibody panel differentiates acute, recent, and past infection. EBV is also linked to certain cancers and chronic fatigue.

How to Prepare

No special preparation required.
