The Viral Liver Panel is a simple blood test that checks for common liver viruses. You may also hear it called a viral hepatitis panel, hepatitis screening panel, or hepatitis B and C panel. If your doctor ordered it, you can book at participating labs on LabFinder.
Some centers list it as a hepatitis serology panel. It measures markers for hepatitis B and hepatitis C, including Hepatitis B surface antibody, Hepatitis B surface antigen, and Hepatitis C antibody. The results help show if you have a current infection, a past infection, or immunity from a vaccine.
Common reasons: a doctor is checking possible exposure to hepatitis, you have signs like yellow skin or dark urine, you had an abnormal liver enzyme test, you need screening for work, school, or a procedure, or you want to confirm immunity to Hepatitis B after vaccination.
You will check in and show your ID and order. A phlebotomist cleans your arm and draws a small tube of blood. The needle part is brief and you may feel a quick pinch. A bandage is placed and you can leave. Plan for about 10 to 20 minutes at the site.
Yes, this is a quick, routine blood draw and is considered very safe. You might feel a quick pinch, notice a small bruise, or feel a little lightheaded for a moment afterward, but those effects usually fade quickly. Be sure to tell the staff if you take blood thinners, have a bleeding disorder, or if you have fainted during blood draws before. They will take extra care to keep you comfortable.
No fasting usually needed: unless your doctor includes other tests. Avoid high dose biotin: if you take biotin supplements, skip large doses for 24 hours before testing if possible. Hydrate and wear short sleeves: drinking water can make the draw easier. Share medicines and vaccines: tell the team about blood thinners and recent Hepatitis B shots. Bring your photo ID and test order, and follow any instructions from your doctor or the lab.
