Abstract Invasive fungal disease (IFD) is a feared complication in patients with hematological malignancies. In 2008, the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer/Invasive Fungal Infections Cooperative Group and the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases Mycosis Study Group (EORTC/MSG) published updated criteria for the diagnostic workup within clinical studies for immunosuppressed patients with suspected fungal infection. We applied these criteria in a routine clinical setting with regard to their feasibility for bedside practice at our institution in a 1-year period. One hundred...
