There is no consensus regarding the appropriate threshold for TB screening. Guidelines are developed for public health goals and therefore may not represent the best clinical choice for individual patients. Decisions regarding TB screening should be based on risk, and local or regional TB incidence data should be used to help define such risk.
TB: tuberculosis.
* An incidence of TB of >100 per 100,000 population is associated with an annual risk of infection of approximately 1 percent.
¶ Note that Brazil, China, and the Russian Federation had TB incidence rates <100 per 100,000 in the World Health Organization (WHO) 2018 Global Report; however, given the overall burden of TB in these areas, they are considered high-TB burden countries by the WHO.
