Uno de los aspectos clave de las estrategias actuales de control, eliminación y erradicación de la malaria es aumentar la capacidad de detección de la enfermedad con métodos cada vez más sencillos y robustos que puedan aplicarse fácilmente en el terreno. Para lograr este objetivo, es necesario mejorar la sensibilidad de la microscopía clásica con métodos de concentración de hematíes infectados, utilizar test rápidos ultrasensibles de última generación o técnicas moleculares como el LAMP, que no requieren termocicladores y pueden utilizarse en las zonas endémicas. Los sistemas diagnósticos basados en la atracción magnética de la hemozoína son una opción atractiva también para el cribado poblacional.
