In a retrospective study, false negative readings of CMV Scan results were detected. In a following prospective survey of 72 transplant donor sera, CMV Scan had a sensitivity and a negative predictive value of greater than 95%. Although CMV Scan is a rapid and useful test, a higher reliability can be achieved if results are controlled by another sensitive test or, at the least, CMV Scan is read by two different persons.
