Detection of antibodies to Coccidioides immitis/posadasii
This assay should not be used as a screen for the general population nor for monitoring response to therapy.
Alongside other routine laboratory testing, including fungal culture, this test may be used as an aid for the diagnosis of infection with Coccidioides species.
Test ID | Reporting Name | Available Separately | Always Performed |
