Nucleic Acid Detection
Nucleic acid detection is not yet a part of routine diagnostics for blastomycosis, and the role for this tool in clinical laboratories has not been defined. Theoretically, nucleic acid detection could reduce turnaround time compared with culture while obviating laboratory-associated hazard. It could also improve sensitivity compared to cytology or histopathology (Babady et al. 2011).
