【Abstract】 Monkeypox is a zoonotic viral disease caused by monkeypox virus infection. Monkeypox has become a public health emergency of international concern, since it first spread widely in many regions outside Africa in 2022. Accurate and effective detection methods are particularly important for the diagnosis and screening of monkeypox virus infection. This review summarizes laboratory testing techniques for monkeypox virus in recent years, and compares principles and detection performance of microscopy, culture, nucleic acid testing and immunological methods.

【Abstract】 Monkeypox is a zoonotic disease caused by monkeypox virus infection. This disease primarily occurs in tropical rainforest regions of central and western Africa, and is occasionally exported to other regions. Since May 2022, multinational monkeypox outbreak has become the largest monkeypox outbreak in history outside Africa. This review summarizes progress in the etiology, epidemiology, laboratory detection, clinical diagnosis and treatment of monkeypox.

【Abstract】 Monkeypox is a zoonotic disease caused by monkeypox virus, and human cases infected with the virus have been reported in more than 100 countries. To respond to the potential of case importation and consequent spread of the infection in the country, it is urgent for China to strengthen its comprehensive surveillance efforts consisting of case detection through country-entering check, symptom screening, and investigation among priority populations, and to implement comprehensive strategies to control the source of infection, interrupt the transmission and protect the people at risk.
