Bacterial Culture Underestimates Lung Pathogen Detection and Infection Status in Cystic Fibrosis

Microbiological surveillance of airway secretions is central to clinical care in cystic fibrosis (CF). However, the efficacy of microbiological culture, the diagnostic gold standard for pathogen detection, has been increasingly questioned. Here we compared culture with targeted quantitative PCR (QPC...
