Test Result Interpretation
While the blood culture does examine HBsAg, the readings can only be comprehended when the complete Hepatitis B test panel has been taken into consideration.
Unlike many other tests, the HBsAg screening test does not contain values and ranges. Instead, it only indicates whether the individual is positive or negative on the parameters examined. The HBsAg test by ELISA or CLIA method gives a quantitative value of the HBsAg. The permutation of positives and negatives on the three readings leads to certain conclusions. However, since it is rather complex, the HBsAg test report is best studied by a doctor.
