Comparative Diagnostic Performance of Three Commercial Real‐Time PCR Assays for the Detection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis Complex in Bronchial Washing Specimens: A Large Retrospective Study

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
This large retrospective study compared the diagnostic performance of three commercial real‐time PCR assays (AdvanSure TB/NTM, Cobas MTB, and Xpert MTB/RIF) for MTBC detection in 3348 bronchial washing specimens. In a head‐to‐head comparison of 740 specimens, the Cobas MTB and Xpert MTB/RIF assays showed markedly higher sensitivity than the AdvanSure ...
