Hepatitis B surface antigen level identifies patients with inactive chronic hepatitis B from Asia with HCC risk below surveillance threshold
Serum HBsAg levels <100 IU/mL effectively identify patients with inactive CHB with negligible HCC risk and limited viral activity, which is important in optimising surveillance strategies and defining partial HBV cure.
