Abstract
Two articles, one by Stekler et al. in this issue of AIDS [1] and the second by Pilcher et al. in theNew England Journal of Medicine, [2] are the most recent in a series of studies applying nucleic-acid amplification testing (NAT) to diagnose pre-seroconvesion window-phase HIV-1 infections [3–8]. We review key observations from these studies, and address issues impacting expanded use of NAT in donor screening, public health surveillance and diagnostic screening settings.
