Diagnosis of Syphilis

There are several ways to test for syphilis:

Dark field microscopy. Take skin ulcer exudate or lymph node puncture fluid, test under a dark field microscope, and see the movable Treponema pallidum, which can be used as the basis for the diagnosis of syphilis. But the detection rate is low.

Syphilis serological test. By testing the blood for the presence of Treponema pallidum-related antibodies, including specific antibodies and non-specific antibodies. Antibodies from the bacteria that cause syphilis will remain in the body for many years, so this test can be used to determine current or past infections.

Cerebrospinal fluid examination. It is mainly used for the diagnosis of neurosyphilis. This test is helpful for the diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of neurosyphilis. The examination items should include cell count, total protein determination, RPR and TPPA tests, etc.
