Abstract:
Objective To investigate the clinical significance of γ-interferon release test (IGRA) in the diagnosis of entry-exit people with tuberculosis.Methods A total of 64 patients with tuberculosis and 46 healthy people were detected by IGRA,tuberculin skin test (TST),LAM,38× 103 and 16 × 103.The results of different methods were compared and analyzed.Results The sensitivity of IGRA detection method (88.9 ％) and specificity (95.8 ％) were both higher,while the sensitivity (92.7 ％) of the TST method was higher and the specificity (76.7 ％) was lower.Conclusion The sensitivity and specificity of IGRA in the detection of tuberculosis are higher,and it has important clinical application value.
