| dc.description | D. immitis detection techniques have evolved over the years, the oldest is the modified Knott technique, which allows microfilariae to be visualized, however it can give negative results when the microfilariae count is very low, however, in studies involving a large population, it has been used because its costs are low. Serological techniques are the most used, because a certain specificity that allows detecting the parasite, however, is affected by the low count of female parasites or the absence of microfilaremia, which is a limitation in the use of serological techniques. This is why new techniques are used, such as PCR, which has been used for thirty years. This technique allows the disease to be detected even in cases that do not present microfilaremia or a high count of females, and also allows the identification of the species. of the parasite, which allows a timely action of the doctor to provide the treatment; costs are the main limitation of this technique. Serological techniques will continue to advance, but the use of PCR is highly recommended because it provides reliable information, as long as the procedures are carried out correctly, avoiding human error. | es_ES |

| dc.description.abstract | Las técnicas de detección de D. immitis en el transcurso de los años han evolucionado, la más antigua es la técnica de Knott modificado, la cual permite visualizar las microfilarias sin embargo puede dar resultados negativos, cuando el conteo de microfilarias es muy bajo sin embargo, en estudios que conllevan una gran población, se la ha usado debido a que sus costos son bajos. Las técnicas serológicas son las comúnmente más usadas, debido a que proporcionan cierta especificidad que permite detectar el parasito, sin embargo se ve afectada por el conteo bajo de parásitos hembra o la ausencia de microfilaremia, lo cual es un limitante en el uso de las técnicas serológicas, es por esto que se emplean nuevas técnicas, como la PCR la cual se la usado desde hace treinta años, esta técnica permite que se detecte la enfermedad incluso en casos que no presente microfilaremia o conteo alto de hembras, además permite la identificación de la especie del parasito, lo cual permite un oportuna acción del médico para brindar el tratamiento; los costos son la principal limitante de esta técnica. Las técnicas serológicas seguirán avanzando, pero es muy aconsejable el uso de la PCR debido a que brinda información confiable, siempre y cuando se ejecute los procedimientos de forma correcta, evitando el error humano. | es_ES |
