New approaches for the diagnosis of Kaposi's sarcoma
REFNo: HS28ES
To evaluate two novel diagnostic approaches for KS that may be eventually deployed with portable, point-of-care techniques. One approach features confocal microscopy and the other approach uses nucleic acid amplification. We shall compare these new approaches with the gold standard of histology from a traditional skin punch biopsy to determine the sensitivity and specificity of each new approach.
