HPV stands for human papillomavirus and is mainly detected by stained microscopy methods, DNA testing, and serologic tests. The standard ranges are all negative. 1. Normal value: no matter using any test method, no matter high risk virus or low risk virus, as long as they are all negative, then it means that there is no HPV virus infection. 2. Abnormal: Doing an HPV typing test, any one of the positives indicates infection with the HPV virus. For example, if any of the HPV 1, 2, or 4 viruses are positive, it could lead to common warts, or flat warts or filiform warts. If any of HPV 6, 11, 16, or 18 is positive, there is a possibility that it could lead to condyloma acuminatum.
