Usefulness of Xpert MTB/RIF Ultra to Rapidly Diagnose Sputum Smear-Negative Pulmonary Tuberculosis Using Bronchial Washing Fluid

This study evaluated the performance of the Xpert MTB/RIF Ultra assay (Xpert Ultra) to detect smear-negative pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB). Xpert Ultra assay was prospectively performed using bronchial washing fluid (BWF) in comparison to COBAS TaqMan MTB (COBAS) assay and mycobacterial culture. Of t...
