Overview
Laboratory findings consistent with the diagnosis of aspergillosis include positive aspergillus antibody test, positive galactomannan test, and elevated concentration of IgE immunoglobulin.
Laboratory Findings
Complete Blood Count

Electrophoresis
- Elevated concentration of serum immunoglobulin E (IgE)
Biomarkers
- Positive galactomannan assay
- Positive beta-D-glucan assay
Culture and Stain
- Positive sputum culture and stain following bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL)[1]
