In vitro diagnostics (IVDs) are diagnostic tests that examine samples taken from the human body, such as blood, mucus or urine, outside the body. Examples of IVDs include toxoplasmosis, Malaria, vitamin D (see below) and tests that show whether a person has antibodies to a disease/virus. The advantage of IVD rapid tests is that they are simple to perform and give quick results.
