Xpert MTB/RIF ultra for the diagnosis of tuberculous meningitis: a small step forward

Xpert MTB/RIF ultra for the diagnosis of tuberculous meningitis: a small step forward

The delayed diagnosis of tuberculous meningitis (TBM) leads to poor outcomes, yet the current diagnostic methods for identifying Mycobacterium tuberculosis in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) are inadequate. The first comparative study of the new GeneXpert MTB/RIF Ultra (Xpert Ultra) for TBM diagnosis sugg...
