Cepheid Fingerstick HCV Test Gains CE Mark
September 20, 2018
Cepheid received the CE Mark for its fingerstick test used for quantifying viral loads of the hepatitis C virus.
The test, the Xpert HCV VL Fingerstick, detects RNA levels of the virus from blood samples and can be used in near-patient settings.
It can detect a wide range of virus genotypes in approximately one hour, so diagnosis and the start of antiviral treatment could occur within a single clinical visit.
