Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Bone and joint tuberculosis (BJTB) constitutes about 10-20% of the extrapulmonary tuberculosis (EPTB) cases in China. The GenoType MTBDRplus assay (MTBDR) has been endorsed by the World Health Organization (WHO) for the diagnosis of pulmonary TB (PTB), while the Xpert MTB/RIF assay (Xpert) has also been endorsed by the WHO for the diagnosis of both PTB and EPTB. The diagnostic utility of these two...
