May is Hepatitis Awareness Month and Echosens is calling for increased vigilance and attention to the millions of Americans from all walks of life who are living with the most common causes of viral hepatitis: hepatitis B virus (HBV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV).

It causes cellular dysfunction and, in some patients, leads to non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), fibrosis, and cirrhosis.
