Invasive pulmonary aspergillosis (IPA)- A study of risk factors, diagnostic modalities and role of galactomannan antigen detection
The GM assay in BALF at an ODI threshold of ≥1.0 showsmodest discriminative ability for the early detection of invasive pulmonary aspergillosis (IPA). Incorporating GM testing alongside conventional diagnostics enhances early identification and facilitates prompt antifungal therapy.
