摘要

球虫病是一种地方性真菌病，是由二态真菌生物球虫炎和C.波萨达引起的。球虫病患者通常因社区获得性肺炎样疾病而就诊，不幸的是，即使在地方性地区，这种诊断通常也不是临床医生鉴别诊断的首选。本文综述了可用于诊断球虫感染的各种检测方法，包括血清学检测、分子诊断和真菌培养的性能和解释。此外，使用替代，非球虫生物标志物，以支持诊断进行了讨论。

A Review of Diagnostics for Coccidiomycosis

Coccidiomycosis is an endemic mycosis that is caused by the dimorphic fungal organisms Coccidoides immitis and C. posadasii. Patients with coccidiomycosis often present for care with community-acquired pneumonia-like illness, and unfortunately, this diagnosis is not commonly at the top of a clinician’s differential, even in areas of endemicity. This review examines the various assays that can be used to diagnose infection with Coccidioides spp., including discussion of the performance and interpretation of serological assays, molecular diagnostics, and fungal culture. Additionally, the use of alternative, non-coccidioidal biomarkers to support the diagnosis are discussed.

期刊介绍： Highly respected for its ability to keep pace with advances in this fast moving field, Clinical Microbiology Newsletter has quickly become a “benchmark” for anyone in the lab. Twice a month the newsletter reports on changes that affect your work, ranging from articles on new diagnostic techniques, to surveys of how readers handle blood cultures, to editorials questioning common procedures and suggesting new ones.
