Cost-Effectiveness of Automated Digital Microscopy for Diagnosis of Active Tuberculosis
BACKGROUND: Automated digital microscopy has the potential to improve the diagnosis of tuberculosis (TB), particularly in settings where molecular testing is too expensive to perform routinely. The cost-effectiveness of TB diagnostic algorithms using automated digital microscopy remains uncertain. M...
