Evaluation of a Cryptococcal antigen Lateral Flow Assay in serum and cerebrospinal fluid for rapid diagnosis of cryptococcosis in Colombia
A Lateral Flow Assay to detect cryptococcal antigen (CrAg(®) LFA) in serum and cerebrospinal fluid for the rapid diagnosis of cryptococcosis was evaluated. A retrospective validation was performed. Sensitivity and specificity of the CrAg(®) LFA was 100%. High concordance (kappa index=1.0) between Cr...
