Overview: HBsAg Test
The HBsAg test detects Hepatitis B Surface Antigen, an early marker of HBV infection. A positive result may indicate acute or chronic Hepatitis B and warrants clinical correlation to prevent complications (e.g., cirrhosis, hepatocellular carcinoma). As a frontline screen, HBsAg is often paired with other viral markers or follow-up molecular assays. Fasting is not required.

Result interpretation & next steps
Qualitative reports positive/negative; if positive, your doctor may order quantitative HBsAg and related markers (HBeAg, Anti-HBe), LFTs, or HBV DNA PCR.
Quantitative results assist in monitoring trends over time and informing treatment.
Window period: If exposure is recent, HBsAg can be temporarily negative; repeat testing or HBV DNA PCR may be advised.
