Abstract: Detection of serum galactomannan (GM) and (1,3)‐β‐d‐glucan (BG) is considered useful for non‐culture diagnosis of invasive pulmonary aspergillosis (IPA) in neutropenic patients. Only few studies evaluated these seromarkers in non‐neutropenic patients suspected of having IPA.… read more here.
