pubmed:abstractText |
Quantitative assessment of cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection using the antigenemia test has been used to monitor CMV infection in heart and lung transplant patients enabling a preemptive treatment strategy. However, the method is labour intensive, samples have to be processed within a few hours and requires skilled interpretation. A comparative prospective evaluation of a real-time TaqMan CMV quantitative PCR (QPCR) with the CMV antigenemia was undertaken.
