Liver Foundation urges Ontarians with chronic hepatitis B to undergo
testing every 6 months.
When you eat right, exercise
and generally feel healthy, it's easy to forget that you're living with
a potentially deadly virus. Faced with an almost one in four chance of
developing liver cancer or other complications of advanced liver disease
however, Ontarians living with chronic hepatitis B cannot afford to be
complacent. That is why the Canadian Liver Foundation is urging those
with chronic hepatitis B to undergo viral load testing and liver cancer
screening every six months.
