Improved diagnosis of active Schistosoma infection in travellers and migrants using the ultra-sensitive in-house lateral flow test for detection of circulating anodic antigen (CAA) in serum
Schistosomiasis is a parasitic disease affecting over 250 million people in the tropics. In non-endemic regions, imported Schistosoma infections are commonly diagnosed by serology, but based on antibody detection an active infection cannot be distinguished from a cured infection and it may take more...
