    Candidiasis can occur in the mouth and throat (often referred to as thrush), esophagus, or vagina (commonly called a yeast infection). Invasive candidiasis is an infection of other parts of the body, including the brain, blood, and heart. Candidemia, or a blood infection, is the most common form of invasive candidiasis. Candiduria, or Candida in the urine, is also a sign of invasive infection.
