Description
The Fungal Culture, Bronchial Wash test is designed to detect fungal infections in samples obtained from bronchial washing procedures. This test is crucial for diagnosing fungal infections in the lower respiratory tract, including the bronchi and lungs. It’s particularly useful in patients with suspected pulmonary fungal diseases, such as aspergillosis or histoplasmosis. The culture can identify various fungal species, helping clinicians choose appropriate antifungal treatments. This test is often performed in conjunction with other diagnostic methods to ensure comprehensive evaluation of respiratory infections, especially in immunocompromised patients or those with chronic lung diseases.
