title: [Investigational methods in Lyme disease].
abstract: After the first clinical case of Lyme disease had been recorded in Belgrade in 1987 a multi-level research of the disease was undertaken in our country. The research was organized on the team basis and was systematized. Ever since the beginning epidemiological method has been applied. Professional approach was provided by guidelines, while methods and research stages have been provided and further developed during seminars and symposiums dealing with lyme disease. Research team was comprised of experts from Institute of Public Health of Belgrade, Institute for Preventive Medicine of the Medical Military Academy and clinicians--specialists in the relevant areas. The team gathered its own precious experience in Lyme borreliosis, the disease with precisely defined features and well-described manifestations and characteristics. This work describes methodology applied in the research of Lyme disease in our country.
