Important TB Testing Information

QuantiFERON Test Results: Please note that if your QuantiFERON-TB Gold test comes back positive, your employer or school may require a follow-up chest X-ray to confirm that you do not have active tuberculosis. Be sure to follow the specific requirements provided by your organization.

  • A positive QuantiFERON test may require a chest X-ray
  • Additional testing is often determined by your employer or school
  • Chest X-rays help rule out active TB
  • Institutions may have specific follow-up protocols
  • Further evaluation may be needed based on results
