Blood test could spare thousands from invasive TB diagnosis
NCT ID NCT07230457
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a new blood test that looks for TB DNA in the blood. It aims to see if it works as well as a bronchoscopy (a scope down the throat) to diagnose lung tuberculosis. 600 adults who need a bronchoscopy will give a blood sample for comparison. If successful, patients could get a faster, safer diagnosis without an invasive procedure.
