most definitely the stages in Hep C are Roman numerals - ask any pathology department or lab department or any hepatologist.
Stage I is characterized by inflammation without the development of any scar tissue. Stage II features include inflammation with early scarring (fibrosis) in one zone (portal) of the liver. Stage III shows bridging of the fibrosis between adjacent portal tracts. Stage IV is cirrhosis (advanced scarring with loss of normal liver architecture). Stage of Disease Terminology Early stage, mild activity (1) Chronic Persistent Hepatitis C or Mild Chronic Active Hepatitis C Intermediate stage (II or III) Chronic Active Hepatitis C with Fibrosis Advanced stage (IV) Cirrhosis
