This laboratory test detects genetic material from HIV-2, a less common form of the virus that causes AIDS, found mostly in West Africa. It uses a technique that amplifies small amounts of viral genetic material to give a yes-or-no result rather than measuring how much virus is present. It helps confirm an HIV-2 infection when it's suspected.
