Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Biopsy is not typically used to diagnose HIV infection. HIV diagnosis is primarily based on blood tests like ELISA, Western blot, and fourth-generation algorithms, which detect antibodies, antigens, or both related to the virus. A biopsy is a procedure to remove a piece of tissue for examination and is not standard for diagnosing HIV.
