Fig. 1From: Optimal specimen type for accurate diagnosis of infectious peripheral pulmonary lesions by mNGSComparison of positive rates between mNGS and microbial culture for detection of infectious bacteria, fungi, and uncategorized pulmonary pathogens. The number of positive samples by mNGS (y axis) is plotted against the mNGS and microbial cultures (x axis) of infectious bacteria (n = 14), fungi (n = 21), and uncategorized pulmonary pathogens (n = 43)Back to article page
