    Eine verstärkte Reisetätigkeit der einheimischen Bevölkerung und von Bürgern mit Migrationshintergrun... in subtropische und tropische Regionen und Länder mit geringerem Hygienestandard sowie die Immigration verschiedener Völkergruppen erhöht das Risiko einer importierten Parasiteninfektion. Die Diagnostik erfordert hier neben grundlegendem Wissen über die Verbreitung und den Lebenszyklus der einzelnen Parasiten auch Kenntnisse über die sichersten Nachweisverfahren in den unterschiedlichen Stadien einer Infektion. In diesen Leitlinien wird deshalb das Gesamtgebiet der Laboratoriumsdiagnos... von Parasiten-Infektione... beschrieben. Im Allgemeinen Teil werden Besonderheiten dargestellt, die für die Auswahl der Patienten und der Untersuchungsmateria... sowie den Versand zu beachten sind. Weiterhin werden Untersuchungsmethode... gezeigt, die in jedem parasitologischen Labor Anwendung finden. Im Speziellen Teil folgen, thematisch geordnet, alle relevanten Parasitosen mit Angabe des Erregers, seiner Verbreitung und ein Hinweis zum Infektionszyklus. Der Untersuchungsgang wird so dargestellt, dass der Leser erkennen kann, an welcher Stelle des Untersuchungsganges ggf. die Unterstützung durch ein Fachlabor erforderlich ist (Stufendiagnostik). Im Anhang findet sich ein tabellarischer Überblick über die erforderlichen Probenmaterialien und den darin zu erwartenden Erregern und auch Hinweise auf die von Parasiten ausgelösten klinischen Symptome. Eine tabellarische, alphabetisch geordnete Auflistung aller behandelten Parasitosen ermöglicht zum Abschluss eine schnelle Orientierung über eine sinnvolle Anordnung der Untersuchungsgänge.
