A venereal research disease laboratory (VDRL) test is performed in?
A Venereal Disease Research Laboratory (VDRL) test is primarily performed to screen for syphilis, a sexually transmitted infection caused by the bacterium Treponema pallidum. It detects non-specific antibodies that may be present in the blood in response to the infection. While it is a useful screening tool, positive results often require confirmatory testing with more specific tests, such as the FTA-ABS. The VDRL test is also occasionally used to monitor disease activity and treatment response.
