Performance of LED-based fluorescence microscopy to diagnose tuberculosis in a peripheral health centre in Nairobi.
<h4>Background</h4>Sputum microscopy is the only tuberculosis (TB) diagnostic available at peripheral levels of care in resource limited countries. Its sensitivity is low, particularly in high HIV prevalence settings. Fluorescence microscopy (FM) can improve performance of microscopy and...
