Establishing and evaluation of a polymerase chain reaction for the detection of Echinococcus multilocularis in human tissue

BACKGROUND: Alveolar echinococcosis (AE) is caused by metacestode larva of the tapeworm Echinococcus multilocularis. AE diagnostics currently rely on imaging techniques supported by serology, but unequivocal detection of AE is difficult. Although polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based methods to dete...
