TB Gold Test
What is the TB Gold Test (Quantiferon-TB Gold)?
Direct answer: The TB Gold Test is a blood test that detects latent or active tuberculosis infection with high accuracy.
The TB Gold Test (Quantiferon-TB Gold) is an interferon-gamma release assay (IGRA) that measures immune response to tuberculosis bacteria. It requires a single blood sample, is unaffected by prior BCG vaccination, and does not need a follow-up visit. At healthcare nt sickcare, this test is available across Pune through Home Collection Facility and Direct Walk-in Facility.
Why is the TB Gold Test advised?
Direct answer: Doctors advise this test to screen for tuberculosis infection more accurately than skin tests.
This test is recommended for individuals with TB exposure risk, pre-employment medicals, pre-surgery clearance, or unexplained prolonged cough and fever. It offers higher accuracy than the Mantoux skin test and avoids false-positive results due to BCG vaccination. Preparation instructions are available in our test preparation guides.
