摘要：
A Lateral Flow Assay to detect cryptococcal antigen (CrAg (R) LFA) in serum and cerebrospinal fluid for the rapid diagnosis of cryptococcosis was evaluated. A retrospective validation was performed. Sensitivity and specificity of the CrAg (R) LFA was 100%. High concordance (kappa index=1.0) between Cryptococcal Antigen Latex Agglutination System (CALAS (R)) and CrAg (R) LFA was observed. CrAg (R) LFA showed higher analytical sensitivity for detecting low concentrations of cryptococcal antigen.
