Oncologist 's  Response
A negative PCR means that your father does not have active hepatitis C virus infection.
Treatment of choice for Low grade astrocytoma is safe surgical resection. If tumor is located in such eloquent area of brain that it cannot be removed safely then radiation therapy is the treatment.
I hope it helps. Please discuss it with your treating oncologist.
