The Evolving Landscape of Fungal Diagnostics, Current and Emerging Microbiological Approaches

Invasive fungal infections are increasingly recognized in immunocompromised hosts. Current diagnostic techniques are limited by low sensitivity and prolonged turnaround times. We review emerging diagnostic technologies and platforms for diagnosing the clinically invasive disease caused by Candida, A...
