Webinar: Algorithms for Diagnosing the Endemic Mycoses Blastomycosis, Coccidioidomycosis, and Histoplasmosis

Event Organizer: Centers for Disease Control and Prevention

Event Website: https://emergency.cdc.gov/coca/calls/2023/callinfo_092123.asp

Event Overview:

“The endemic mycoses blastomycosis, coccidioidomycosis (Valley fever), and histoplasmosis are environmental fungal diseases that are frequently misdiagnosed. Early diagnosis of these fungal diseases, mainly in primary and urgent care settings, can prevent severe and disseminated disease.

During this COCA Call, participants will learn about these infections’ epidemiology and diagnostic challenges. Participants will also be introduced to new clinical diagnostic algorithms to address these challenges and improve the timely diagnosis of blastomycosis, coccidioidomycosis, and histoplasmosis.”
