Improving Pulmonary Infection Diagnosis with Metagenomic Next Generation Sequencing

Improving Pulmonary Infection Diagnosis with Metagenomic Next Generation Sequencing

Pulmonary infections are among the most common and important infectious diseases due to their high morbidity and mortality, especially in older and immunocompromised individuals. However, due to the limitations in sensitivity and the long turn-around time (TAT) of conventional diagnostic methods, pa...
