    1. The molecular pathology report summarizes results from a qualitative HCV PCR test performed on a blood sample from a 62-year-old male patient referred by Dr. Afzal Bhatti. 2. The test found that hepatitis C virus RNA was not detected in the sample. 3. The method used reverse transcription and real-time PCR to amplify and detect the conserved 5' untranslated region of the HCV genome, with a lower detection limit of 15 IU/ml and reported sensitivities and specificities of 99%.

    QUALITATIVE HCV PCR [ Final Report ]

    to be used for any legal purposes


    Result:
    Hepatitis C virus RNA is not detected.

    Method:
    HCV RNA is copied into complementary DNA by reverse transcriptase,
    followed by amplification of the conserved 5' untranslated region by
    real time PCR.

    Comments:
    1. The lower detection limit of the assay is 15 IU/ml.
    2. Sensitivity of this assay is 99% and specificity 99%.
    3. Almost 10-15% patients who develop anti HCV antibody spontaneously
    clear HCV infection.

    Cautions:
    1. HCV RNA detection in serum may be intermittent due to fluctuation of
    viral titer in blood. Therefore, a single negative HCV RNA test should
    not be used to indicate that an individual is not infected.
    2. Result of HCV RNA test carried out in different laboratories must
    not be compared due to differences in sensitivity and specificity of
    the methods used.
    3. Correlation of results with clinical features and other laboratory
    findings is highly recommended.
