Diagnosing Viral and Atypical Pathogens in the Setting of Community-Acquired Pneumonia 2016-12-21 .txt text/plain 4405 223 38 This review focuses principally on the diagnosis of Legionella, Mycoplasma, and influenza infections, but also covers recent publications on the cutting edge of diagnostic tools likely to transform the field of infectious diseases over the coming decade. 28 Recently, there has been interest in antigen detection assays for the diagnosis of M pneumoniae because these offer the potential for point-of-care testing, but so far these have yet to enter the clinical mainstream. 73 A single study from Taiwan indicates that PCR-electrospray ionization mass spectrometry has promise for the detection of multiple viruses in the setting of respiratory tract infection but this was done retrospectively rather than in real time. Comparison of the performance of direct fluorescent antibody staining, a point-of-care rapid antigen test and virus isolation with that of RT-PCR for the detection of novel 2009 influenza A (H1N1) virus in respiratory specimens ./cache/cord-258021-xhx74vr6.txt ./txt/cord-258021-xhx74vr6.txt
