We have looked at the four species of Plasmodium. This last lesson contains
images of mixed malaria infections, other blood pathogens and blood
contaminants. These are frequently seen on blood films that are prepared for
malaria examination.
This is an interactive lesson. First, you will view an image and be asked to
identify what you see. Once you have become familiar with the image, go to the
next page. On that page, you will notice that the image is annotated, and
additional information provided to the left of the image.
If you need assistance with the meaning of annotations, click the Legend at the
bottom left of the page. A new window will open to help you.
