Abstract

PURPOSE: There is neither uniform consensus on the number of criteria needed for diagnosis nor the specific cut-off values for the various parameters employed in diagnosis of ABPA. Traditionally an AEC of >1000 cells/μL is considered an important criteria for diagnosis of ABPA. This study attempts to delineate the significance of peripheral blood eosinophil counts in the diagnosis of ABPA, and its relationship with lung function, immunological and radiological parameters.
