What is the best method for quantitative detection of neonatal hepatitis B currently?

Patient's question:

I am 38 years old and recently feel that my liver is very tired. I haven't had a good appetite, and at night, I always feel a sharp pain in my stomach. I went to the nearby hospital for a check-up and was told it was liver disease. They advised me to get an injection. Could you please tell me what the best method for neonatal hepatitis B quantitative testing is currently?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, newborns must undergo hepatitis B testing after birth. Within 24 hours of delivery, the doctor will take a blood test. If the mother is a hepatitis B carrier, it is important to cooperate with the doctor to ensure proper isolation during labor. In most cases, it will not be transmitted to the baby. After the newborn completes the necessary tests, they will promptly receive the BCG vaccine, which has the effect of preventing hepatitis.
