Does Lateral-Flow Assay (LFA) provide high sensitivity and specificity for the rapid detection of influenza virus compared to traditional methods?
LFA is a rapid and valuable alternative for diagnosing influenza, showing high sensitivity and specificity, though further validation against traditional methods is needed.
LFA exhibited high sensitivity and specificity in diagnosing influenza virus. It is a valuable alternative method which can diagnose influenza virus quickly. However, more evidence is required to confirm whether LFA is comparable to traditional methods for detecting the virus.
