A member asked:
Is the syphilis rapid test using a tool such as a cassette similar to the hiv rapid test accurate? when is the best time to do a syphilis rapid test?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
The time to conclusive results with the rapid syphilis blood tests has not been carefully studied. They were designed primarily to diagnose longstanding syphilis, not new cases. Probably they detect most infections at 6 weeks, but sometimes it might take 3 months.
