Combined host depletion and metagenomics sequencing significantly improves the diagnosis of pulmonary tuberculosis.
2022-11-21
Abstract excerpt
Rapid and accurate detection of MTB ( Mycobacterium tuberculosis ) is key to eliminating tuberculosis. Metagenomic sequencing combining host depletion can significantly improve the diagnostic performance for tuberculosis. Here we compared the performance for diagnosis of 98 suspected pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) among mycobacterial culture, Xpert, metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS), mNGS of depletion hu...
