The Aspergillus galactomannan Ag VIRCLIA® Monotest and the sõna Aspergillus galactomannan lateral flow assay show comparable performance for the diagnosis of invasive aspergillosis.

Both assays showed comparable diagnostic performance with a higher sensitivity for the GM-LFA if two consecutive positive samples were required for positivity. However, due to poor reproducibility, positive GM-LFA results should always be confirmed.
