Summary
This study aims to find better ways to diagnose tuberculosis (TB) in children under 15. Every year, about 230,000 children die from TB, often because current tests are slow or hard to use. Researchers will test new, faster, and simpler diagnostic tools on 2,100 children with TB symptoms to see which work best.
