Clinical Laboratory Diagnostics for Invasive Aspergillosis
The objectives of this proposal are to 1) establish and maintain a repository of clinical samples from patients at high risk for IA, 2) perform comparison studies between FDA-cleared tests for invasive aspergillosis (IA) and experimental IA diagnostic tests, and 3) perform studies to evaluate the performance of IA diagnostic tests in subjects with potentially interfering medical conditions.
