BMD testing was performed as described in CLSI M27-A2, and disk diffusion testing was performed as described in CLSI M44-A.

b

%R, percent resistant to voriconazole (MIC ≥ 4 μg/ml).

c

Data abstracted from Pfaller et al. (24).

d

50% and 90%, MIC encompassing 50% and 90% of isolates tested, respectively.
