Drug susceptibility profiling of pulmonary Mycobacterium kansasii and its correlation with treatment outcome

OBJECTIVES: With the introduction of newer molecular diagnostic tools to identify Mycobacterium tuberculosis, an increasing number of nontuberculous mycobacterium (NTM) is being identified. However, the drug resistance pattern of the NTM species identified is less explored. The objective of this stu...
