There are six major hepatitis C genotypes (1-6), and historically they responded differently to treatment. While modern direct-acting antivirals are effective across most genotypes, genotype information still influences specific drug selection and treatment duration in some cases.
This test is ordered in patients confirmed to have hepatitis C infection (positive HCV RNA) before starting antiviral therapy. Sample type is serum or plasma.
