A Babesia microti detection in patient blood using Giemsa staining. B Plasmodium falciparum detection in isolate sub-culture using Giemsa staining. C Refractive index tomography detection at the ring stage of B. microti and P. falciparum shown in grayscale with invaded single merozoite (red arrow) and parasitophorous vacuoleBack to article page
