RT-PCR is a highly sensitive molecular test used to detect the presence of specific RNA viruses, such as the SARS-CoV-2 virus that causes COVID-19. This technique first converts viral RNA into DNA (reverse transcription), then amplifies it to detectable levels. The RT-PCR test is considered the gold standard for diagnosing active infections due to its high accuracy and ability to detect even small amounts of virus. It is typically performed using a nasal or throat swab and is essential in identifying, isolating, and treating infectious diseases early. RT-PCR is also used in testing for other viruses such as influenza, HIV, and hepatitis.
