MSF requirements
In MSF, ELISA tests are currently used to:
- monitor TSH in MDR TB patients
- confirmation of Chagas disease
- in high case loads of some serological tests
- for operational research purposes
More tests will be validated in the future for applications if no other alternative like rapid tests are available.
