Cryptococcal Meningitis (CM) Market Expected to Reach USD 890

Cryptococcal meningitis (CM) is a life-threatening fungal infection of the brain and spinal cord, primarily caused by Cryptococcus neoformans or Cryptococcus gattii. It is most common among immunocompromised individuals, particularly people living with HIV/AIDS. Despite being preventable and treatable, CM remains a major cause of mortality in low- and middle-income countries due to limited access to early diagnostics and antifungal therapies.
