Abstract
Diagnosis of hepatitis B and C is based on sensitive and specific serological assays. Molecular assays for the detection of HBV DNA or HCV RNA are in some instances needed to confirm the diagnosis. However, their principal role is in the therapeutic decision making and in the monitoring of antiviral therapy.
