| Research Abstract |
The objectives of the study were to evaluate the feasibility of using urine-based techniques for the diagnosis of tuberculosis among children and to compare the effectiveness of new diagnostic tools against the existing clinical tools for diagnosis of tuberculosis in children. Among 97 suspected cases that were examined for all tests, 24 cases were positive for any tests. Although only 11cases were smear positive, additional 7cases by MGIT, 5 cases by PCR using respiratory samples, and 1 case by TB-LAMP using urine samples were further identified. This study showed diagnosis capacity could increase to double by applying respiratory and urine samples for liquid culture and PCR.
