Pulmonary cryptococcosis (PC) is an infection typically diagnosed in immunocompromised or immunocompetent patients, which can lead to severe disease if not treated appropriately. We aimed to determine the association between clinical manifestations, computed tomography (CT) findings, and host immune status with the serum cryptococcal antigen (CRAG) test results of PC patients.
