Evaluation of Xpert MTB/RIF Assay, MTB Culture and Line Probe Assay for the Detection of MDR Tuberculosis in AFB Smear Negative Specimens
The global burden of tuberculosis (TB), particularly with multidrug resistance (MDR), is escalating and has become a major health challenge. It is well known that acid-fast bacilli (AFB) smear-negative TB patients are the major source of spreading TB to healthy individuals when left untreated. Early...
