The proper treatment of parasitosis starts with a reliable identification of the parasites. The most common diagnostic procedure is stool specimen analysis or fecalysis. It is a routine protocol for most medical examinations. The method is suitable for protozoan and helminthic parasites thriving in the gastrointestinal tract and associated organs. Through careful and systematic search of stool samples, you may find trophozoites and/or cysts of protozoans, eggs and fragments of helminthic parasites.
