Development And Evaluation Of An Antigen Detection Test For Hydatid Cyst Disease

Hydatid cyst disease (HCD) is a zoonotic parasitic disease which can infect both humans and animals. Imaging and antibody detection tests have been used to diagnose HCD, the former cannot differentiate between hydatid cyst and other pathologies; while the latter may not be able to differentiate betw...
