    What is a Galactomannan (Aspergillus Antigen) Test?

    The Galactomannan (Aspergillus Antigen) test is a diagnostic blood test used to detect the presence of galactomannan, a substance found in the cell wall of Aspergillus species. This test is particularly useful for diagnosing invasive aspergillosis (IA), a severe fungal infection that commonly affects immunocompromised patients, such as those with prolonged neutropenia, organ transplant recipients, or individuals on aggressive immunosuppressive therapies. When Aspergillus infects the body, galactomannan is released into the blood. The test detects this antigen in blood or other body fluids, serving as an early marker of infection. Galactomannan can often be detected 7 to 14 days before other clinical signs or radiologic evidence of the infection appear. The Galactomannan test helps identify IA early, allowing for prompt initiation of antifungal therapy. Early detection can improve outcomes, as invasive aspergillosis has a high mortality rate if untreated. This test is especially valuable when a definitive diagnosis through biopsy or culture is difficult due to the patient's critically ill condition. If you live in Bangalore, you can book the Galactomannan (Aspergillus Antigen) test in Bangalore online and have the sample collected from home.
