The correct
answer is C, Giardia intestinalis (syn. Giardia lamblia) trophozoites.
Diagnosis of giardiasis is routinely done through examination of a stool
sample. However, duodenal aspirates (or duodenal capsule technique-EnteroTest)
may be useful for detection of trophozoites of Giardia intestinalis.
The parasite stages listed in answers A, B, and D would be found infrequently
in duodenal aspirates.
