aDoctor24/7 TUBERCULOSIS BLOOD TESTS (IGRA)

IGRAs (Interferon-Gamma Release Assays) are blood tests for tuberculosis infection.

Tuberculosis blood tests called interferon-gamma release assays (IGRAs) that can accurately detect tuberculosis infection caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis.

You should have a TB blood (or TB skin) test if you’ve had regular close contact with someone who has active TB disease, lived in an area where many people have TB, worked or resided, or have a weak immune system.

Types of tuberculosis blood tests (IGRAs) available:

QuantiFERON.TB

IGRAs are tests that assess a person’s immune response to M. tuberculosis. When white blood cells from people who have been infected with M. tuberculosis are combined with antigens produced from M. tuberculosis, interferon-gamma (IFN-g) is released.
