Serologic diagnosis of focal pneumonia caused by Cryptococcus neoformans.

W A Jensen, R M Rose, S M Hammer, A W Karchmer.   

Abstract

Cryptococcal antigen was detected in the serum of 3 patients with biopsy-proved Cryptococcus neoformans pneumonitis. It is possible that the specificity of this antigen test will allow the serologic diagnosis of cryptococcal pneumonia and obviate the need for invasive procedures.
