Useful For
Suggests clinical disorders or settings where the test may be helpful
Determining in vitro quantitative antifungal susceptibility (minimum inhibitory concentration) of non-fastidious yeast
Testing may be warranted to aid in the management of certain circumstances, such as:
-Refractory oropharyngeal infections due to Candida species in patients who appear to be experiencing therapeutic failure with standard agents at standard doses
-Invasive infections due to Candida species when the utility of azole antifungal agents is uncertain (eg, when the infection is due to a non-Candida albicans organism)
