Measles Antigen Test by Immunofluorescence

Delaware rates for HCPCS 87283

A laboratory test that looks directly for the measles (rubeola) virus in a specimen taken from a patient, such as a swab. Antibodies tagged with a fluorescent dye attach to the virus if it is present, and the laboratory sees them glow under a special microscope. Because it detects the virus itself, it points to an active infection.
