Abstract
Cryptococcosis is an invasive fungal infection caused by yeasts of the genus Cryptococcus that causes a significant global burden of disease in both immunocompromised and immunocompetent individuals. Over the past several decades, diagnosis and management of cryptococcal disease have moved to focus on rapid, reliable, and cost-effective care delivery, with the advent of new antigen detection assays and novel antifungal treatment strategies.
