Novel biomarkers assist in detection of liver fibrosis in HCV patients

Abstract Background Accurate staging in individuals infected with hepatitis C is imperative to understand their long-term risk for liver-related complications. Liver biopsy has a traditional role to determine the levels of liver fibrosis specifically in hepatitis C virus patients. However, the devel...
