Histoplasma Galactomannan Antigen Urine Test

The Histoplasma Galactomannan Antigen Urine Test measures fungal antigens linked to Histoplasma capsulatum infection, which can cause pulmonary or disseminated histoplasmosis. Detection in urine provides a sensitive marker for active disease, particularly in those with weakened immune systems. The test aids clinicians in diagnosis, assessing severity, monitoring therapy, and differentiating histoplasmosis from other fungal infections.
