What is JC-BK Virus DNA Detection by Real Time PCR, Urine in Allahabad?
JC-BK Virus DNA Detection by Real Time PCR, Urine detects the genetic material of BK-virus (BKV) in the urine of an individual with a weak immune system due to factors like old age, organ transplant, kidney surgery/injury, and diseases like HIV-AIDS or diabetes. This virus attacks individuals with weak immune systems and increases the possibility of developing conditions like BKV-associated nephropathy (kidney damage) or hemorrhagic cystitis (an inflammatory condition of the urinary bladder that often leads to bleeding while passing urine). These conditions decrease kidney function and eventually cause kidney failure. This test may help the doctor manage BKV-associated infections, monitor disease progression, and determine the effectiveness of the treatment.
