| Concept | Microbiology parasitology findings |
| Description | A laboratory test to directly detect, identify and quantify parasites or their developmental forms in a specimen, using microscopy. |
| Use | Use to record findings about parasites or their developmental forms, such as eggs, larvae, cysts, trophozoites in a specimen, using microscopy. |
| Misuse | Not to be used to record findings related to parasites that use molecular, antigen or antibody testing. Use CLUSTER.laboratory_test_molecular_microbial, CLUSTER.laboratory_test_antigen or CLUSTER.laboratory_test_antibody for this purpose. |
| Purpose | To record findings about parasites or their developmental forms in a specimen, using microscopy. |
