Hepatitis B & C Test in Mandi Bahauddin
ICT screening and confirmatory ELISA for hepatitis B and C, done confidentially and reported the same day.
Why this test is done
Pakistan has one of the highest hepatitis C burdens in the world, and Punjab carries a large share of it. Most people who are positive feel completely well for years. Screening is quick, cheap and confidential — and both infections are now treatable, hepatitis C in most cases curable, if they are caught in time. We strongly recommend a screen before marriage, before surgery, after any dental or barber-shop exposure, and for every family member of a positive patient.
What is included
- HBsAg (hepatitis B surface antigen)
- Anti-HCV (hepatitis C antibody)
- ELISA confirmation of reactive samples
- HBV / HCV PCR viral load (sent to a reference lab)
- Confidential handling and counselling
How to prepare
Fasting: Not required
Sample: 3–5 ml blood in a gel (yellow-top) tube
Report time: Same day — within 4 hours
Timings: 8:00 AM – 10:00 PM, seven days a week — no appointment required.
Bring your doctor's prescription and any previous reports of the same test. Comparing today's result with an older one is often more useful than the number on its own, so we keep your history on file and print the comparison where it helps.

| HBsAg | Non-reactive (negative) |

Reference ranges vary slightly between laboratories and with age, sex and pregnancy. Always read your report against the ranges printed on it, and interpret it with your doctor.
