About This Test
Malaria is a serious, potentially life-threatening disease caused by parasites that infect red blood cells. To screen for this disease, a Malaria - Smear Examination (Screening by Microscopy-Thick & Thin Smears) test is recommended. This test provides an accurate diagnosis of malaria and helps identify the type of parasite causing the infection. The benefits of this test are tremendous - it allows doctors to track the effectiveness of treatment and can even help identify if the disease has recurred. At Ampath Lab in Hyderabad, the Malaria - Smear Examination test is conducted with the help of microscopy techniques, making it a reliable and cost-effective method for diagnosis. Overall, this test is a crucial tool in maintaining good health and preventing the spread of malaria.
