The relationship between lung CT features and serum cryptococcal antigen titers in localized pulmonary cryptococcosis patients
In pulmonary cryptococcosis patients, the number and size of lung lesions are positively correlated with the titers of the serum CrAg-LFA test. The CrAg-LFA test could be a useful tool for the diagnosis, severity assessment, and therapeutic monitoring of localized pulmonary cryptococcosis patients.
