    Most common fungus seen in CSF specimens.As anatomical pathologists are approximately 80% accurate (when measured against culture), it is important to state something like correlation with culture is recommended.The gold standard for determining the microorganisms is culture.Pseudohyphae = looks like hyphae -but branching pattern is created by separate cells.Septae/septation = hyphae may be subdivided by septae - if they aren't they are one mass of protoplasm.Mycelial = filamentous network of hyphae.Hyphae = microscopic filamentous growth (of fungi) - single cell.
