Tuberculosis (TB) is an infectious disease primarily affecting the lungs. Although the number of infections in the United States declined since 1993, it remains a concern. For this reason, the CDC recommends testing at least on an annual basis.
Tuberculosis testing is comprised of two parts:
Part one. The tuberculin skin test (TST) is applied by injecting a small amount of liquid (called tuberculin) into the skin of the lower part of the arm, causing a small, pale bump to appear.
Part two. The TST result assessment. Patients must return for a follow-up visit within 48 to 72 hours of the injection to have the TB test read. Please note that you may be directed to a different health care setting if you have any of the following conditions:
- Compromised immune system
- History of adverse reaction to TB testing
- Previous positive skin test for TB Chickenpox, influenza, measles or mumps in the preceding month
