Infectious Disease Detection

Infectious disease detection involves identifying the presence of pathogens, such as bacteria, viruses, or fungi, in the body. This process can include laboratory tests like blood, saliva, or tissue analysis, as well as rapid diagnostic tools that detect specific disease markers or genetic material. Accurate detection helps healthcare providers diagnose, treat, and control the spread of contagious illnesses effectively. Advances in technology have improved speed and accuracy, enabling earlier intervention and better outcomes while minimizing the risk of transmission to others.
