Off-label use of T2Candida® test in vitreous humor for diagnosing invasive candidiasis: a clinical report

Emilio Cendejas-Bueno et al. Future Microbiol. 2021 Jun.

Abstract

Here, we present a case of off-label successful use of the T2 MR (T2Candida® test) for the diagnosis of invasive candidiasis (Candida albicans endolphthalmitis). This case demonstrates that T2Candida could be performed in sterile body fluids to improve microbiological diagnosis of invasive candidiasis.

Keywords: T2Candida®; invasive candidiasis; vitreous humor.
