Results of a local modified Delphi consensus on use of plasma metagenomic next-generation sequencing

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: Molecular tests without well-defined test performance characteristics are increasingly available for diagnosis of infectious diseases. These tests present a diagnostic stewardship challenge for institutions. We share the results of a local modified Delphi consensus undertaken to define appropriate scenarios for use of plasma metagenomic next-generation sequencing.
