Laboratory diagnosis of filariasis.

M L Eberhard1, P J Lammie.   

Abstract

In this article, the authors describe how to detect blood-borne and skin-dwelling filarial infections parasitologically. Considerable space is devoted to identifying and separating microfilarial from nonparasite objects, and the evaluation of morphologic features, including size, shape, and internal anatomy is stressed.
