Thank you, that is helpful.
Those pages provide detailed information for clinician to diagnose and manage oral candidiasis. in brief, if you do'nt present clinical lesion and symptoms, the diagnosis of candidiasis can not be established. if biopsy specimen is available, if we see "budding of hyphae", we tend to label active infection. if only hyphae are present, we tend to label inactive infection. If you are highly motivated, disscussion with an oral pathologist is encouraged.
Thank you for your note, however, I am a student going into the health fields, and do not have access to such texts. Would you be able to at least point me in the direction of what the text is discussing on those pages, and I'll go from there? Thanks again.
Since you are in the field of health profession,I would recommend you review the textbook titled" Burket's oral medicine,11th edition", page79-84.. which will provide you detailed information.Other oral microbiology textbook may provide you additional information.
