摘要：
Diagnostic tests are used to confirm the presence of community-acquired pneumonia (CAP), assess severity, and identify the responsible pathogen. At present, there is no study or combination of studies that can consistently provide a microbiologic diagnosis, and controversy continues as to what tests should be performed. This article reviews each of the roles of diagnostic testing in CAP and focuses on the issue of microbiologic diagnosis. Based on available evidence, recommendations are provided for use of diagnostic studies in CAP.
