Any time that a parasite invades the body and causes symptoms, you've got a parasitic disease. There are, however, many different parasitic diseases.

For instance:

Toxoplasmosis- Infection of the brain, caused by Toxoplasma gondii.

Giardiasis- Infection of the small intestine, caused by Giardia lamblia.

Enterobiasis- Intestinal infection by pinworms.

Ascariasis- Digestive tract infection by Ascaris lumbricoides.

Schistosomiasis- Variable infection caused by some form of Schistosoma parasite.

Leishmaniasis- Cutaneous/membranous invasion spread by sandfly bite.

In addition, to the person who previously answered "parisitosis", this is technically correct, but entirely unhelpful.
