Is galactomannan a useful tool for triage and diagnosis of oral invasive aspergillosis?

Objective: To evaluate the accuracy of the galactomannan serum test in diagnosing oral invasive aspergillosis.

Methods: This prospective observational study included oncohematological neutropenic patients with suspected invasive aspergillosis, but without signs of pulmonary involvement. These patients underwent nasofibroscopy, biopsy, galactomannan serum testing, and maxillofacial high-resolution computed tomography to diagnose invasive aspergillosis.
