T-Spot TB Test in East Chicago, Indiana

Same-day and Affordable T-Spot Blood Test, Locations Nationwide

The T-Spot blood test is used to aid in the diagnosis of Tuberculosis.  This test measures several immune system biomarkers to determine if an infection with Mycobacterium Tuberculosis, the bacteria that cause TB, may be present.  The T-Spot is one of only 2 IGRA (Interferon-Gamma Release Assay) blood tests for TB approved by the FDA.  Blood testing for TB requires only one visit to the lab as opposed to the 2-step skin test.   

Tuberculosis is a bacterial disease that typically affects the lungs.  TB bacteria are spread through the air from one person to another. While TB is not as common in the United States as it once was, there is still a risk posed by TB infection.  Most people who are infected with TB develop a latent infection in which the bacteria are present in their body but controlled by their immune system.  People with latent TB infections will not experience any symptoms and are unlikely to spread the disease to others.  If left untreated, a latent infection may persist for a person's lifetime without causing any illness.  In some people, a latent infection may progress to active TB disease.  An active TB infection can develop shortly after the initial exposure or later in life after years of being in a latent state.
