The Mono-Prep system increases the detection rate of sputum smear microscopy for diagnosing tuberculosis
OBJECTIVE: Direct sputum smear microscopy (DSSM) has a low detection rate. This study investigated whether an alternative method called Mono-Prep smear microscopy (MPSM) can enhance the diagnosis of tuberculosis in tuberculosis laboratories that perform direct smear microscopy in China. METHODS: A t...
