- Authors
Richardson, Malcolm
- Abstract
The article offers information on several studies about the etiology and treatment of invasive aspergillosis, a fungal disease. Studies on the etiology of invasive aspergillosis have different results, some found that it is a community acquired disease while others considered it as a nosocomial infection. Other studies also found the effectiveness of high-efficacy particulate (HEPA) filters in decreasing the incidence of aspergillus infection.
