Questão de Parasitologia Clínica
To evaluate the quality of a diagnostic test, important variables such as sensitivity and specificity are considered to measure and identify the diagnostic accuracy of the method. Regarding the Kato-Katz method, it is safe to say that:
A
It has high specificity and high sensitivity.
B
It has low sensitivity because egg counting can be inaccurate, as it depends on the technician who will evaluate it. In addition, a low parasite load may not be detected by the technique.
