Abstract:
Prenatal diagnostic methods are becoming very popular these days. This method is based onthe early detection of pregnancy-related problems, including potential genetic diseases. Prenatal diagnosis identifies all problems before birth, anatomical and physiological problems related to the health of the zygote, embryo or fetus. Prenatal diagnosis refers to the testing and evaluation of a fetus before birth to detect genetic, chromosomal, structural, or metabolic disorders. It helps in early identification of potential health issues, allowing for informed decision-making and possible interventions

Health economics is a discipline of economics applied to health care. One method used in health economics is decision tree modelling, which extrapolates the cost and effectiveness of competing interventions over time. Such decision tree models are the basis of reimbursement decisions in countries using health technology assessment for decision making. In many instances, these competing interventions are diagnostic technologies. Despite a wealth of excellent resources describing the decision analysis of diagnostics, two critical errors persist: not including diagnostic test accuracy in the stru

Diagnostic stewardship aims to deliver the right test to the right patient at the right time and is optimally combined with antimicrobial stewardship to allow for the right interpretation to translate into the right antimicrobial at the right time. Laboratorians, physicians, pharmacists, and other healthcare providers have an opportunity to improve the effectiveness of diagnostics through collaborative activities around pre-analytical and post-analytical periods of diagnostic testing. Additionally, special considerations should be given to measuring the effectiveness of diagnostics over time.

Abstract:
AbstractLymphangiography as a diagnostic procedure dates back to the 1950s and was widely performed for several decades until being supplanted by other advanced imaging techniques. With the advent of thoracic duct embolization to treat chylothorax, Constantin Cope ushered in a transition from lymphangiography as a diagnostic procedure to a precursor for lymphatic intervention. Subsequently, technical modifications and applications of lymphatic embolization to other medical conditions have greatly expanded the scope and application of lymphangiography and lymphatic intervention. Although there

Abstract:
<b><i>Background:</i></b> Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) is a main tool in pancreatology for both diagnosis and therapy. It allows minimally invasive differentiation of various diseases, with a minimal degree of inflammation or anatomic variations. EUS also enables interventional direct access to the pancreatic parenchyma and the retroperitoneal space, the pancreatic duct, the pancreatic masses, cysts, vascular structures for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. <b><i>Summary:</i></b> This review aimed to summarize the new developments of EUS in the

Abstract:
Accurate diagnosis of malaria is vital for the effectiveness of parasite clearance interventions in elimination settings. Thus, evaluating the diagnostic performance of rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs) used in malaria parasite clearance interventions in elimination settings is essential. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the diagnostic performance of rapid diagnostic tests recently used in detecting malaria parasites in northwest Ethiopia. A facility-based cross-sectional study was conducted from November 2020 to February 2021 comparing PfHRP2/pLDH CareStart malaria RDTs with light microsco

Abstract:
Abstract BACKGROUND Emerging antenatal interventions and care delivery to the fetus require diagnostic support, including laboratory technologies, appropriate methodologies, establishment of special algorithms, and interpretative guidelines for clinical decision-making. CONTENT Fetal diagnostic and therapeutic interventions vary in invasiveness and are associated with a spectrum of risks and benefits. Fetal laboratory assessments are well served by miniaturized diagnostic methods for blood analysis. Expedited turnaround times are mandatory to support invasive interventions such as cordocentesi
