国际患者International patients

What to expect

NIPD-CDC primarily provides reference laboratory services, expert consultation, and surveillance — not routine outpatient clinical care. Patients with confirmed or suspected schistosomiasis, clonorchiasis, paragonimiasis, or other parasitic infections from food exposure are typically referred via tertiary infectious-disease hospitals (Huashan, Shanghai PHCC) for praziquantel-based treatment, with NIPD providing parasitological confirmation and serology where needed.
