Time to Detection of Growth for Mycobacterium tuberculosis in a Low Incidence Area

Background Diagnosis of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) infection can be confirmed by Xpert assays within hours. However, when sample size does not allow performing both culture and Xpert, or if Xpert is negative, then formal diagnosis of MTB relies on culture and time to detection of growth (TDG)...
