Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: With the advent of highly efficient antiviral therapies for hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection, providing broad access to diagnosis and care is needed. The dried blood spot (DBS) technique can be used to collect, store, and ship whole-blood specimens. Our goal was to assess the performance of standardized HCV diagnostic and monitoring tools in the analysis of DBS. METHODS: Serum specimens and...
