Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) is a DNA virus that is transmitted primarily through blood exposure and sexual contact, and from mothers to their children. HBV causes liver infections in humans. The HBV DNA Viral load is a blood test that measures the amount of hepatitis B virus DNA in the blood or plasma. This helps doctors diagnose chronic HBV infection, monitor the effectiveness of antiviral treatment, and assess the risk of liver damage. The test quantifies the viral DNA, providing valuable information for managing HBV infection.
