A member asked:
Could you tell me what are doctors testing for when they do a hepatitis b test?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Serum titers: Often a liver fuction panel ~ 6 serum tests, one blood draw will see if there is any indirect evidence of a liver problem. If these are elevated or there are other risk factors such and direct blood exposure to an individual that has or is thought to have hepatitis b one could go straight to obtaining a serum titer.
