Dynamics of hepatitis B virus infection.
Mathematical models of the dynamics of HIV and hepatitis C virus infection have proven to be of great utility in understanding pathogenesis and designing better treatments. Here, we review the state of the art in modeling and interpreting data obtained from hepatitis B virus infected patients treated with antiviral agents.
