The clinical impact of pneumocystis and viral PCR testing on bronchoalveolar lavage in immunosuppressed patients()
INTRODUCTION: Pulmonary infiltrates in immunosuppressed patients are common. Yields from bronchoscopy with bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) has been reported to be between 31 and 65%. The clinical impact of pneumocystis and viral Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) testing on BAL has not been extensively ev...
