Disease Introduction MechanismInvasive aspergillosis (IA) is a major threat for immunocom- promised patients. In particular, patients who undergo mye- loablative chemotherapy are especially at risk of developing the disease. Rapid and well-adapted treatment is required to circumvent the disease's high mortality and achieve a favorable outcome. Currently however, diagnosing the disease is difficult and generally based on a body of signs and symp- toms including clinical, radiological and biological features.
