Abstract:
The severe infectious diseases caused by virus are occurring with increasing frequency, which poses a rising global threat to human health and life.There are many kinds of viruses that cause a wide variety of viral diseases.The same kind of virus is able to cause different diseases, meanwhile a disease can be caused by different viruses.All these conditions make the relationship between viral pathogens and infection diseases complicated.At present, no effective laboratory detection methods for most of virus infectious diseases are developed.But the rapid development of molecular diagnostic technologies makes it possible for clinical laboratory to detect viral infection diseases rapidly and simultaneously.This review summarized the present and development perspectives of laboratory tests for the diagnosis of clinical virus infections, attempting to give some advices for laboratory diagnosis procedure of viral infections.
