Hepatitis Panel (GPSL-HEP)

The Hepatitis Panel (GPSL-HEP) is a blood test that screens for various types of hepatitis viruses, including hepatitis A, hepatitis B, and hepatitis C. Hepatitis is an inflammation of the liver, often caused by viral infections, and can lead to liver damage and other serious health complications.

The GPSL-HEP panel is typically ordered when a patient has symptoms of hepatitis or is at high risk of exposure to the virus, such as through intravenous drug use or unprotected sex. It is also used to screen blood donors and healthcare workers for hepatitis infection.

Overall, the Hepatitis Panel (GPSL-HEP) is an important tool in diagnosing and monitoring hepatitis infections, and can help guide appropriate treatment and management of this potentially serious condition.
