Ring stage classification of Babesia microti and Plasmodium falciparum using optical diffraction 3D tomographic technique

Abstract Background Babesia is an intraerythrocytic parasite often misdiagnosed as a malaria parasite, leading to inappropriate treatment of the disease especially in co-endemic areas. In recent years, optical diffraction tomography (ODT) has shown great potential in the field of pathogen detection...
