Requiring a blood sample collection, the TB Gold test is performed to confirm whether or not a person has a tuberculosis infection. The QuantiFERON (TB Gold) test checks for the presence of mycobacterium tuberculosis, which is responsible for causing TB. The test is an interferon-gamma release assay, now used in place of the tuberculosis skin test. Plus, the TB Gold test is also a controlled lab test that is unaffected by the BCG infection. Available at affordable prices in Sion, Mumbai, the QuantiFERON (TB Gold) Test is a highly accurate and specific test for the detection of tuberculosis.
Available at all Max Lab diagnostic centres in Sion, Mumbai at affordable prices, the QuantiFERON (TB Gold) test is an Interferon-Gamma Release Assay (IGRA) performed for the accurate detection of mycobacterium tuberculosis.
