Innovative approaches to tuberculosis diagnosis with emphasis on nucleic acid amplification tests in a resource constrained high burden tuberculosis setting
The global control of tuberculosis (TB) is currently hindered by the low sensitivity of microscopy and the prolonged time-to-result of culture. Recent technical progress has improved both diagnostic accuracy and turnaround, namely, nucleic acid amplification tests (NAAT). The World Health Organiz...
