title: [Infection status of wild freshwater fish with Metacercariae of Clonorchis sinensis in west Liaoning].
abstract: A total of 1131 wild freshwater fishes were collected from Nver River, Gou River and Liao River in the west region of Liaoning Province, and examined for metacercariae by direct compression and artificial digestion (pepsin-HCl) method.
