Diagnosis of Legionnaires' disease by radioimmunoassay of Legionella antigen in pleural fluid.

M J Oliverio1, M A Fisher, R M Vickers, V L Yu, A Menon.   

Abstract

We describe a case of culture-proven Legionnaires' disease (serogroup 1) in which a rapid diagnosis was made by detection of Legionella antigen in pleural fluid by use of the Binax radioimmunoassay for urine.
