HCV RT- PCR I have seen this question before.
Am I UND or not.....
Test information:
Quantitative range of the assay is 15 IU/ml to 100 million.The limit of detection (LOD) and lower limit of qualification(LLOQ) for this assay is 15 IU/ ml. Results less than the quantitative range will be reported as,,,,,,,, "HCV RNA detected, less than 15 IU/ ml."
So, HCV not detected means HCV not detected.

So, HCV not detected means HCV not detected.
Not sure why, but I never had quite read the statement until I have this set of labs in my hand. It does make it a little more definitive...
"So HCV not detected means HCV not detected"

Yes it means not detected. All that other language is on the lab results and
causes confusion by the word " detected". It confused me too.
