[Diagnosis of nosocomial aspergillosis].
The diagnosis of invasive aspergillosis is initially based, as in other severe infectious diseases, on clinical grounds. This diagnosis must be confirmed by microbiological methods such as the direct observation of the clinical specimen, its culture and the detection of galactomannan in serum.
