About This Test
The Dengue RT-PCR test is a molecular test used to detect the genetic material (RNA) of the dengue virus in a patient’s blood sample. It is the most accurate test for early detection of dengue infection—especially within the first 1–5 days of fever, when the virus is actively circulating in the blood. This test have high sensitivity and specificity which helps confirm dengue even when NS1 antigen test is inconclusive. This test is recommended when patients having symptoms of acute fever within 5 days, body pain, headache, vomiting.

TAT Policy
The Turnaround Time (TAT) depends on the following factors:
- Registration date and time
- Type of scan or test
- Scan time or sample collection time
In uncommon circumstances, TAT may be delayed due to test complexity or reasons beyond our control. You will be informed of the estimated TAT at the time of registration.
