CYTOMEGALO VIRUS (CMV) – IgG

The cytomegalo virus (CMV) IgG test detects IgG antibodies against CMV, a common virus that can cause mild to severe infections. A positive CMV IgG test indicates past exposure to the virus and the presence of long-term immunity. This test is used to assess an individual’s immune status, especially in pregnant women, organ transplant recipients, and immunocompromised patients. It provides valuable information for guiding preventive measures, monitoring for potential reactivation of the virus, and ensuring appropriate medical management to avoid complications associated with CMV infection.
