Hep B Surface Ag w/Con

The Hepatitis B Surface Antigen (HBsAg) test detects the presence of the Hepatitis B virus's surface antigen in the blood, indicating an active Hepatitis B infection. A positive HBsAg result suggests that the individual is currently infected with the virus, either in an acute or chronic state. This test is crucial for diagnosing Hepatitis B and monitoring the disease's progression. If HBsAg is detected, the test includes a confirmation step to determine the viral load and assess the degree of infection.
