An investigation of the disparity in estimates of microfilaraemia and antigenaemia in lymphatic filariasis surveys

BACKGROUND: The diagnosis of lymphatic filariasis (LF) is based typically on either microfilaraemia as assessed by microscopy or filarial antigenaemia using an immuno-chromatographic test. While it is known that estimates of antigenaemia are generally higher than estimates of microfilaraemia, the ex...
