Inspection method
The mainstream is the "nasopharyngeal PCR test", which wipes the mucus in the back of the nose with a "swab" that looks like a long cotton stick, but from July 17, 2021, a "saliva PCR test" that can be tested from saliva is also available. became.
Please be assured that we can handle both nasopharyngeal swabs and saliva tests.
The RT-PCR method is mainly used for overseas travel, but in the case of domestic tests, we carry out the Nucleic acid amplification test (LAMP) method for diffusion amplification tests. This test (LAMP method) is a diffusion amplification test, similar to the RT-PCR method, and is a test method that amplifies the RNA that constitutes the virus. It is a test method with higher system and specificity than rapid antigen test.
Many medical institutions (national hospitals, public hospitals) basically carry out tests by the LAMP method, which is a highly reliable test method.

Those who seek a more accurate diagnosis in combination with PCR tests- PCR testing is expensive, so those who want to check for infectious diseases by antigen testing first
- Those who want to confirm infectious diseases earlier than PCR tests
We recommend it to you.
Antigen testing detects proteins in viral antigens that trigger an immune response.
It is a general test performed by antigen test mainly in the judgment of influenza virus infection.
PCR tests are the mainstream for coronavirus infections, but antigen tests are also a very useful test as an indicator of infection.
The Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare also states that although it is a little less sensitive than the PCR test, it is useful when there are certain symptoms and it is possible to find infected people quickly.
According to the survey results, it has been confirmed that those who have onset within 2 to 8 days of onset have a high concordance rate between the antigen test and PCR test results. In addition, those who test positive for the antigen need to undergo a PCR test at a medical institution or health center, but please be assured that our hospital also supports PCR tests.
This test is classified as a "research reagent" and is used for triage purposes, not for therapeutic or diagnostic purposes. Use a swab to collect the swab from the pharynx and nasopharynx.
