Abstract:
The diagnosis and treatment of invasive fungal infections has been attracting more and more attention along with the increase incidence in the current clinical practice.We hereby work out this paper to elaborate some key issues,coveting the history and methodology of anti-fungal susceptibility testing, the MIC recognition of yeast fungus and mycelial fungus,breakpoint interpretation,and finally the guidance for clinical practice.To better undemtand susceptibility test results and improve the guality of susceptibility tests in this review,we chosed several most-often used anti-fungal drugs and explained their effect activity.
