Real-world clinical impact of plasma cell-free DNA metagenomic next-generation sequencing assay | Infection Control & Hospital Epidemiology | Cambridge Core Real-world clinical impact of plasma cell-free DNA metagenomic next-generation sequencing assay

Really interesting paper by my colleagues at @domucla.bsky.social - and fits with my own thoughts about the utility/pitfalls of plasma mcfDNA (including low yield of fungal pickup) as well as giving some ideas for future diagnostic stewardship if incorporated into practice @jschaenmanmd.bsky.social
