Conditions

Tuberculosis lipoarabinomannan immunohistochemistry AFB PCR tuberculosis

Interventions

The positive immunohistochemical image of anti&#45
lipoarabinomannan monoclonal antibody is a granular round dot. We count the dots in 1 hotspot under 40x to determine the cut&#45
off point yielding the best diagnostic ability.
