Optimising Mycobacterium tuberculosis detection in resource limited settings

OBJECTIVES: The light-emitting diode (LED) fluorescence microscopy has made acid-fast bacilli (AFB) detection faster and efficient although its optimal performance in resource-limited settings is still being studied. We assessed the optimal performances of light and fluorescence microscopy in routin...
