Precise PCR Results are Critical for Individuals that are Immunocompromised. 

Immunocompromised and transplant individuals require precise testing to uncover common viruses that can be life threatening for them. Cytomegalovirus (CMV), for example, is a herpes-type viral infection found in a large percentage of the adult population worldwide. In healthy individuals, CMV can present symptoms similar to mononucleosis but often the virus lies dormant and produces no symptoms.¹

Cytomegalovirus Complications in Immunocompromised /Transplant Individuals

Cytomegalovirus can be fatal for individuals with a compromised immune system. Due to a weakened immune system, CMV can cause complications in numerous organs including eyes, lungs, liver, esophagus, stomach, intestines, and brain.²  Accurate testing for these individuals allows for timely intervention and treatment to avoid organ damage and potential fatality.
