Current and future hepatitis C virus diagnostic testing: problems and advancements.

Abstract excerpt

Serological antibody assays used in hepatitis C virus diagnosis have improved in sensitivity and specificity. However, detection of active viremia or monitoring levels of virus during or after patient treatment is most commonly undertaken using nucleic acid-based technologies. Advancements in diagnostic technologies and implications for managing patients with hepatitis C in various clinical settings are discussed.
