**7. Diagnostic accuracy of cysticercosis**

Diagnostic and management tools for cysticercosis in human resource-limiting settings are challenging in healthcare settings are small, inadequate number of trained personnel, and limited laboratory [10].

It is well documented that the detection of human cysticercosis is key to the management of the disease and identification of proglottids or eggs of *T. solium* have both low sensitivity and specificity, though, a confirmatory of the infection by the adult stage of parasite is made possible macroscopically [11, 12]. However, deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) based techniques are sensitive and specific [13]. On the other hand, achievable diagnosis of human cysticercosis can be through ELISA, Cysticercus IgG Western Blot Assay, computed tomography (CT) scan, and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI).
