Welcome to the ICU corridor

Explore interactive clinical cases based on real-life clinician experiences of treating patients at high risk of invasive fungal infections (IFIs) within the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) corridor.

Learn more about how and why treatment decisions were made over time in response to developing clinical scenarios.

Investigations, imaging and insights from the consultants who managed the cases demonstrate why AmBisome^® was chosen to help fight a broad variety of IFIs.
