  • Title: Serologic diagnosis of focal pneumonia caused by Cryptococcus neoformans.
    Author: Jensen WA, Rose RM, Hammer SM, Karchmer AW.
    Journal: Am Rev Respir Dis; 1985 Jul; 132(1):189-91. PubMed ID: 3893246.
    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.
