Comparison of Real-Time Polymerase Chain Reaction and pp65 Antigen Assay for Monitoring the Development of Cytomegalovirus Disease in Recipients of Kidney Transplant
Background: Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) is a member of herpes virus family and its early diagnosis could be very critical in kidney transplant patients. The clinical manifestations of HCMV infection include a wide range from tissue rejection to death. The aim of this study was to compare the accura...
