“…31-42 ISH for fungi using DNA oligonucleotide probes show high degrees of specificity (often >90%) and various levels of sensitivity depending on the fungal agent being studied (ranging from 50% to 95%), can be performed in most instances in 1 to 3 hours, and have been used in a variety of settings including evaluation of invasive and noninvasive fungal rhinosinusitis, deep cutaneous fungal infections, pulmonary fungal infections, and for the evaluation of fatal culture negative disseminated fungal infections 26,[34][35][36]40 (Fig. 14-18,31-42 Subsequently, a variety of fungal pathogens have been detected in tissues by ISH with either biotin or digoxigenin probes including yeast (B. dermatitidis, C. immitis, Cryptococcus neoformans, H. capsulatum, and S. schenckii) and filamentous fungi (Mucorales, Pseudallsecheria bodyii, Fusarium sp, Candida sp.…”
