Performance of Three LED-Based Fluorescence Microscopy Systems for Detection of Tuberculosis in Uganda

BACKGROUND: Direct smear microscopy using Ziehl-Neelsen (ZN) staining is the mainstay of tuberculosis (TB) diagnosis in most high burden countries, but is limited by low sensitivity in routine practice, particularly in high human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) prevalence settings. METHODS: We compared...
