AFB Culture Test

At healthcare nt sickcare, we offer a comprehensive range of medical lab tests, including the AFB Culture Test. This test is used to identify the presence of acid-fast bacilli (AFB) in your sample, which can indicate the presence of a tuberculosis (TB) infection. TB is a serious bacterial infection that mainly affects your lungs but can also affect other parts of your body.

The AFB Culture Test is a microbiological test that is performed at our external NABL certified laboratory. Our team of experienced medical professionals and state-of-the-art technology ensure accurate and reliable results. The test is recommended for individuals who may have symptoms such as coughing, chest pain, fever, or weight loss, which can be associated with TB.

The AFB Culture Test is also used to identify the specific type of TB bacteria, which can help your healthcare provider determine the best course of treatment for your condition. The test is also used to monitor the effectiveness of treatment for TB and to detect potential complications such as drug resistance or recurrence of the infection.

At healthcare nt sickcare, we are committed to providing you with the tools and resources you need to take control of your health. Contact us today to schedule your AFB Culture Test at our external NABL certified laboratory.
