A review of measurements of the total cross section in ppbar collisions at the TEVATRON and an outlook on the expected performance for similar determinations at the LHC is given. The experimental method is based on the optical theorem to determine the total cross section independent of the machine luminosity. It consists of the extrapolation of the t-spectrum for elastic scattering to t-->0 with a simultaneous measurement of the total inelastic rate.
