In Hobukesar, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, (China), a mass-screening programme for human cystic echinococcosis (CE) was performed during 1995 and 1996. After the survey 51 cases were followed-up using ultrasound scan and serology for 1–8 years (... Read More about Post-survey follow-up for human cystic echinococcosis in northwest China.
