The Vaginitis Panel by TMA aids in diagnosing bacterial vaginosis, vulvovaginal candidiasis, and trichomoniasis. It detects Trichomonas vaginalis, Candida glabrata, and other Candida species including C. albicans, C. parapsilosis, C. dubliniensis, and C. tropicalis. The test is significant for patients presenting symptoms consistent with these infections but is not valid for the evaluation of suspected sexual abuse or for forensic purposes. Negative results do not preclude the possibility of an infection, and results should be correlated with other clinical data.
