The Cryptococcus Quantitative Test is a specialized diagnostic tool designed to detect and quantify the presence of Cryptococcus species in a patient’s body, particularly targeting the Cryptococcus neoformans and Cryptococcus gattii species. These fungi are known to cause cryptococcosis, a potentially life-threatening infection, especially in individuals with weakened immune systems, such as those with HIV/AIDS. The test is crucial for early diagnosis and management of the infection, which primarily affects the lungs and the central nervous system.

Performed at DNA Labs UAE, a leading facility in medical diagnostics, the test employs sophisticated molecular techniques to accurately measure the fungal load in a sample, typically cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) or blood. This quantitative approach not only confirms the presence of the pathogen but also provides vital information on the severity of the infection, guiding healthcare professionals in tailoring the most effective treatment plan for the patient.

The cost of the Cryptococcus Quantitative Test at DNA Labs UAE is set at 1630 AED. This investment in health allows for a precise diagnosis, enabling timely and appropriate medical intervention, which can be critical for improving patient outcomes in cases of cryptococcal infections.

Cryptococcus Quantitative Test

At DNA Labs UAE, we offer the Cryptococcus Quantitative Test to measure the amount of Cryptococcus fungus in a patient’s body. This test is particularly important for individuals with weakened immune systems, such as those with HIV/AIDS.

Test Details

The Cryptococcus quantitative test involves collecting a sample, usually from the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) or blood, and culturing it in our laboratory. The sample is placed in a growth medium that promotes the growth of Cryptococcus if it is present. The culture is then incubated for several days to allow the fungus to grow. After the incubation period, the number of colonies of Cryptococcus that have grown is counted. This provides an indication of the amount of fungus present in the sample. The results are reported as colony-forming units (CFUs) per milliliter of sample.

Components and Price

The Cryptococcus Quantitative Test is priced at 1630.0 AED. The test requires fresh tissue biopsy specimens, skin biopsy specimen from a patient with disseminated nodular skin lesions, tissue specimens from a variety of body sites (brain, skin and soft tissue, eye, bone, lung, cardiac valve, and bone marrow), peripheral blood specimens, and respiratory secretions.

Report Delivery

The report for the Cryptococcus Quantitative Test is delivered on the 4th working day via email within 48 hours. Alternatively, you can receive the report on phone within 36 hours.

Method and Test Type

The Cryptococcus Quantitative Test is performed using Real Time PCR, a method that allows for the detection and quantification of the Cryptococcus fungus. This test falls under the category of viral tests.

Doctor and Test Department

The Cryptococcus Quantitative Test is ordered by a physician and is conducted in our Genetics department.

Pre Test Information

Prior to the test, patients are required to sign a Consent document and bring any clinical history related to the Cryptococcus infection.

Diagnosis and Management

The Cryptococcus Quantitative Test is used to diagnose and monitor Cryptococcus infections, especially cryptococcal meningitis, which is an infection of the membranes surrounding the brain and spinal cord. This test also helps assess the effectiveness of treatment and determine if the infection has relapsed. It is important to note that the Cryptococcus Quantitative Test is just one tool used in the diagnosis and management of Cryptococcus infections. Other tests, such as antigen tests and molecular tests, may also be performed to confirm the presence of the fungus and guide treatment decisions.

The Cryptococcus quantitative test is a laboratory test used to measure the amount of Cryptococcus fungus in a patient’s body. Cryptococcus is a type of yeast that can cause serious infections, particularly in individuals with weakened immune systems, such as those with HIV/AIDS.
