Use of a T cell interferon gamma release assay in the investigation for suspected active tuberculosis in a low prevalence area

BACKGROUND: In settings with low background prevalence of tuberculosis (TB) infection, interferon-γ release assays (IGRA) could be useful for diagnosing active TB. This study aims to evaluate the performance of QuantiFERON(®)-TB Gold (QFT-G) in the investigation for suspected active TB, with particu...
