Dengue Panel (IgG / IgM Ab, NS1 Ag)

Dengue Panel is a comprehensive diagnostic suite designed to detect the virus at different stages of infection, providing a clear picture of your health status. Dengue fever is a viral infection transmitted through the bite of infected Aedes mosquitoes. Because its symptoms—high fever, severe headache, and joint pain—can mimic other tropical diseases like malaria or chikungunya, accurate laboratory testing is essential.

IgG antibodies are the long-term memory of the immune system. IgM antibodies are the body’s first responders. Their presence usually indicates a recent or current infection. The NS1 (Non-Structural Protein 1) test is your early warning system. This antigen is released into the blood by the virus during the very first days of infection.

By combining these three tests, the Dengue Profile eliminates the guesswork. Whether you are in the first 48 hours of a fever or are ten days into your recovery, this profile captures the diagnostic markers necessary for your doctor to provide an accurate prognosis and treatment plan.

Note: Always correlate these results with a Complete Blood Count (CBC) to monitor platelet levels, as per the request by your physician.
