About HIV RNA Blood Test | Earlier HIV Testing in Wheaton
This test measures HIV RNA in the blood and is used when early detection matters.
Standard HIV tests look for antibodies that the body makes against the virus. Those antibodies can take weeks to reach detectable levels, which leaves a window during which an infection may be present but a standard test reads negative.
The HIV RNA test instead measures the viral genetic material circulating in the blood. RNA is detectable sooner after exposure than antibodies, so this test can shorten the period between a potential exposure and a reliable result.
Results are typically available within one to three business days. Follow the lab's instructions regarding any preparation before the blood draw.
