Aside from being less expensive than commercially available device, the TB Lamp is also easier to use in that it can give results in just 60 minutes. It also adheres to the same biosafety requirements that applies to the microscopy sputum smears,
which normally takes three days in the traditional procedure. Essentially, the TB lamp gives a relatively high throughput and does not require sophisticated instruments."
"TB-LAMP is a reliable and useful diagnostic test for pulmonary tuberculosis. It has the same accuracy as GeneXpert and DSSM in the diagnosis of pulmonary tuberculosis, so TBLAMP could be used as an alternative diagnostic test. The findings of this study could help improve current guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of patients with pulmonary tuberculosis."
