[Diagnosis of malaria with immunochromatographic test The Novara experience].

Recently rapid antigen assays provide an effective tool for the detection of malaria in symptomatic patients. In Novara Maggiore della Carità Hospital we evaluated the efficacy of the ParaSight F test in patients with malaria.
