What does ANTIBIOGRAM - MTB (ETHIONAMIDE) measure?
This test evaluates whether Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB), the bacterium associated with tuberculosis, is susceptible or resistant to ethionamide, an anti-tuberculosis medicine. It may be used to help guide treatment selection when tuberculosis is confirmed or suspected to be drug-resistant. Results are interpreted together with other laboratory findings, medical history, and clinical assessment.
