Is ECLIA And CMIA Results For Anti HCV Blood Test The Same?
hello doctor.. I have a query, is ECLIA and CMIA results for anti HCV blood test the same? we took a test for my dad on August-2013, the result was 1019 (reactive) in ECLIA. We took another test now and it shows count of 13.87 (Reactive) CMIA. Are both the same tests can we conclude the HCV impact has reduced by seeing these results.
