PCR FOR MTB PUS

PCR FOR MTB PUS

PCR for MTB in Pus is a molecular test used to detect the genetic material of Mycobacterium tuberculosis in a pus sample. It may be recommended when tuberculosis is suspected in an abscess, lymph node, or other affected area, especially when there is persistent swelling or discharge. The test can support rapid detection of TB infection. Results should be interpreted along with clinical findings, culture results, and other TB investigations.
