Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Determined sensitivity and specificity of the iON device by comparing MTB slide results to their associated bacterial culture results from the same specimen(s).

    Sensitivity, specificity, and average analysis time were determined. An image database of \>40,000 images was also created for internal use.

    Study completed over the grant period 2019 - 2022

Study Arms (1)

Study Group

400 Male and Female Ugandan Africans

Diagnostic Test: Diascopic iON Image Analysis System

Interventions

A scanning digital optical train that images sputum slides for automated analysis by a tuberculosis detecting algorithm
