Anti-HAV IgM (Hepatitis A Virus) ​The Anti-HAV IgM blood test is a crucial diagnostic tool used to detect a recent or acute Hepatitis A infection. This test identifies the IgM antibodies produced by the immune system in response to the Hepatitis A virus, which primarily affects the liver. It is the most reliable way to confirm if a patient is currently suffering from an active infection, usually within the first few weeks of exposure.
