Rapid diagnosis of drug-resistant TB using line probe assays: from evidence to policy

1 Oct 2008

Abstract excerpt

Growing concerns about the spread of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) and the emergence of extensively drug-resistant TB have triggered substantial interest in the development and application of rapid tests for the detection of drug-resistant TB. Molecular assays to detect gene mutations that signal drug resistance are widely recognized as being most suited for rapid diagnosis. Among molecular assays,...
