Ever wondered if a chest X-ray can truly diagnose active tuberculosis? This video dives into the critical role of X-rays in TB detection, clarifying what they can and cannot confirm.
Discover the key insights into TB diagnosis:
► A chest X-ray cannot definitively confirm active TB disease on its own.
► X-rays show effects of infection (like infiltrates or cavities), but these patterns are not unique to TB and can be caused by other conditions.
► An X-ray serves as a crucial red flag, prompting further, more definitive laboratory tests.
► Conclusive evidence for TB diagnosis comes from sputum tests (microscopy, culture) and Nucleic Acid Amplification Tests (NAAT).
► The combination of X-ray screening and laboratory confirmation is vital for accurate diagnosis and prompt treatment.
