1. HIV Spot
HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus) is a virus that attacks the body’s immune system, specifically the CD4 cells (T cells), which help the immune system fight infections.
Anyone at risk of HIV exposure or needing routine screening should undergo this test. This includes sexually active individuals with multiple partners, intravenous drug users, and individuals with potential exposure through blood transfusions or needle-sharing.
Yes, the HIV Spot Test is highly accurate in detecting HIV antibodies. However, a positive result requires confirmation through additional tests.
No, additional tests are needed to differentiate between HIV-1 and HIV-2, which are two different strains of the virus.
A positive result indicates possible HIV infection. Further confirmatory tests and counseling will be provided to determine the next steps for treatment and care.
2. SONOGRAPHY
A Sonography Test, or ultrasound, uses sound waves to create images of internal organs and structures without radiation.
Preparation varies by type: fasting for abdominal, full bladder for pelvic, and generally no special preparation for pregnancy ultrasounds.
The test typically takes between 15 to 45 minutes. Results are available within a few hours to a day.
It evaluates organ size, shape, tissue characteristics, blood flow, and in pregnancy, fetal development and health.
