Real-time PCR assay-based strategy for differentiation between active Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia and colonization in immunocompromised patients.

Alanio A et al. Real-time PCR assay-based strategy for differentiation between active Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia and colonization in immunocompromised patients. Clin Microbiol Infect, 2011, 17:1531

Comment

Differentiation of infection from colonisation, particularly in immunosuppressed patients can be difficult.  Whether this should be used to guide clinical practice remains uncertain.
