LAMP is simple to perform and does not require advanced equipment and training thus satisfying the qualification as a point-of-care diagnostic screening test. In this narrative review, we focus on the role of LAMP for malaria diagnosis in non-endemic settings. We searched PubMed, Embase, Scopus, and Google Scholar, using the following search terms: 'Malaria LAMP' in combination with 'imported malaria' or 'travellers...
