[Evaluation of Real-Time Polymerase Chain Reaction in Pneumocystis jirovecii Laboratory Diagnosis].

This study demonstrated that Rt-PCR was the effective method in the diagnosis of P.jirovecii in the laboratory. Conventional n-PCR method was found to be more unsuccessful than Rt-PCR in the presence of very low density organism; direct microscopy is generally found to be positive in samples with a higher burden of P.jirovecii.
