Core Tip	Cystic echinococcosis (CE) (hydatid cyst) is one of the most important parasitic diseases, causing tremendous morbidity and mortality for the human patients. Diagnosis of CE mainly relies on ultrasound images of the cyst along with serological testing. So far, there is no highly specific and sensitive immunodiagnostic test for diagnosis of CE and performances of the currently available tests are not satisfactory. Different antigenic sources including hydatid cyst fluid, antigen B and 5, excretory-secretory antigens of larval stage or adult worm have widely been used for development of serological assays for diagnosis of CE. Utilizing of antigen B subunits in immunodiagnostic tests and detection of IgG subclasses, as a good marker, opened a promising perspective in diagnosis of this debilitating disease.
