2.New Developments in the Immunological Understanding and of Serodiagnosis in Syphilis.
Yonsei Medical Journal 1985;26(1):18-23
There are many serologic tests for syphilis. By means of the usual serologic tests, it is not possible to differentiate between patients who need therapy and those who are cured. In this paper I want to discuss the scientific developments and demonstrate the results of immunologic research in syphilis, which makes it possible to differentiate between treated and untreated cases.
