Utility and Pitfalls of β‐D‐Glucan for Diagnosis and Response Monitoring of Chronic Disseminated Candidiasis in Paediatric Cancer Patients

Mycoses, Volume 68, Issue 8, August 2025.
ABSTRACT Background β‐D‐Glucan (BDG) is a useful but nonspecific biomarker in patients with suspected invasive fungal diseases including Pneumocystis pneumonia. Little is known, however, about its utility for response monitoring in chronic disseminated candidiasis (CDC).
