FAQ’s about Tuberculosis (TB)
TB disease is confirmed through various diagnostic tests, including tuberculin skin test (TST) or TB blood test (IGRA) to check for exposure to TB bacteria, chest X-ray to look for signs of TB infection in the lungs and sputum smear microscopy and culture to detect TB bacteria in respiratory samples.
TB infection progresses through different stages such as exposure, latent TB infection (LTBI), active TB disease and drug-resistant TB.
Chest X-ray can show signs of TB infection, such as abnormalities that suggest active TB disease or scarring from previous TB infections.
TB is primarily transmitted through the air when a person with active TB disease coughs, sneezes, speaks, or sings, releasing TB bacteria into the air.
TB can spread to family members and close contacts who spend significant time with an infected person, especially in poorly ventilated spaces.
TB should be treated with medications prescribed by a healthcare provider.
