Doctors use camera tube to spot hidden tuberculosis

NCT ID NCT07350356

Summary

This study tested if a procedure called bronchoscopy could help doctors find tuberculosis in the airways of patients when the usual sputum (mucus) tests came back negative. Researchers performed the procedure on 63 adults suspected of having lung TB but with negative sputum tests. They looked directly into the lungs with a small camera to check for signs of the infection.
