Overview

Other diagnostic studies are used when NAAT or culture are not available. Other diagnostic studies for gonorrhea infection include rapid NAAT assay (modular-cartridge based platform), leukocyte esterase urine test, immunochromatographic tests, nucleic acid hybridization tests, and enzyme immunoassay (EIA).[1][2][3]
