pubmed:abstractText |
Quantification of hepatitis C virus (HCV) serum viremia levels is an important measure to predict and monitor response to interferon-alpha therapy as well as to predict clinical outcome. We were interested to compare the most widely used HCV quantification methods, quantitative RT-PCR (qRT-PCR) and the branched DNA (bDNA) method, with respect to sensitivity and reliability.
