Antifungals such as voriconazole should display their pharmacodynamic activity in tissue, more precisely in interstitial space fluid (ISF) of tissue, because this is the site where most of the fungal pathogens are considered to reside. Microdialysis is a novel approach for determination of drug concentration in virtually all tissues and has been used in vivo in animal experiments since 1980s and for about 10 years in human studies. The advantages of this technique are that it is easy to handle and reduces the burden on the patient to a minimum because no tissue extraction is necessary. Microdialysis allows a continuous determination of tissue drug concentrations over a defined time interval. In addition this technique enables to determine only the unbound, i.e. pharmacodynamically active fraction of the extracellular drug concentration at the site of action.
