Appropriate hepatitis treatment is needed in order to get total recuperation. The treatment should depend on accurately diagnosis.

The doctor diagnose according to anamnesis, physical test, laboratory test (specifically and usually blood tests) and other additional test using high tech apparatus or machines.

USG is an instrument that is used to know organ abnormality. Through liver USG test, we can see liver enlargement by observing the dullness of the liver edge part (liver edge that is dull show liver enlargement) and liver inflammation by observing liver density part that is darker.

It is a form of x-ray that creates an image of the inside of the body. (The scanner's computer analyses the data to build a view of the tissues and organs of the body.)

A contrast dye is injected into the veins of the patient to enhance certain regions of the liver. These are used to get a more accurate picture of the liver. This can also find liver tumors, bleeding from the liver and can also determine the cause of jaundice.

An ultrasound machine creates images that allow various organs in the body to be examined. The machine sends out high-frequency sound waves, which reflect off body structures to create a picture. A clear, water-based conducting gel is applied to the skin over the abdomen. This helps with the transmission of the sound waves. A handheld probe called a transducer is then moved over the abdomen.

Automatic Specimen Analyzer (Hitachi 912)

Since detection of hepatitis in people is more on performing blood tests and analyzing blood sample, an automatic analyzer is usually used to rapidly produce results needed. This is where blood samples are placed to perform liver function tests (LFT) for the detection of Hepatitis.

Detect hepatitis by the use of PCR testing specifically PCR-RNA. (PCR-RNA testing refers to an advanced technology that is used to detect, in this case, ribonucleic acid from specific type of hepatitis (HCV or Hepatitis C virus).

This is used in performing pathatrix system in foods we eat.

(Pathatrix is a unique high volume recirculating immuno magnetic-capture system for the detection of pathogens in food and environmental samples.) Ex. Contaminated Strawberries
This machine forcefully circulates non specific positively charged magnetic beads throughout berry samples. The cationic beads interact with the negatively charged viral capsids and the two are captured onto a magnet. Following subsequent washes with PBS buffer, the beads are resuspended in PBS and viral RNA is extracted with the RNA mini kit. Extracted RNA is amplified by RTPCR.
