Comparison of quality/quantity mNGS and usual mNGS for pathogen detection in suspected pulmonary infections [PDF]
Improved metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS), for example, quality/quantity mNGS (QmNGS), is being used in the diagnosis of pulmonary pathogens. There are differences between QmNGS and the usual mNGS (UmNGS), but reports that compare their detection performances are rare.
