Description
Molecular and microscopy-based diagnostic capacity is often insufficient or unavailable in places where infectious disease burdens are highest, such as in West Africa. Rapid diagnostic testing (RDT) can provide quick and affordable diagnoses of common infections but is an imperfect solution due to limitations around detecting and dealing with false-negative and false-positive results.
