From: Laboratory diagnosis and susceptibility profile of Helicobacter pylori infection in the Philippines
Comparative positivity of diagnostic tests: RUT (rapid urease test) and histology to H. pylori culture. All patients underwent biopsy, RUT and culture studies. Among the 31 clinico-laboratory defined cases, 14 were culture positive. Ten of the H. pylori culture positive cases were also positive for both histology and RUT. All 14 culture positive isolates tested positive for RUT while only 10 were positive for histology.
