Core Tip This report describes a study that investigated image analysis-based quantitative hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) expression and its different staining patterns in liver biopsies from patients with chronic viral B hepatitis (CHB) and correlated them with clinicopathological factors and treatment. Our findings confirmed the association of cytoplasmic HBsAg staining patterns with disease activity. Besides, the determination of immunohistochemical HBsAg expression by image analysis may be an important predictor of the response to therapy, especially in hepatitis B e antigen-positive cases. Accordingly, evaluation of the percentage of HBsAg expression by objective methods in liver tissues from treatment-naïve CHB patients might provide a useful tool in the follow-up and treatment of this disease.
