What it measures

Tuberculosis Tests

Clinical significance

QuantiFERON is a laboratory test based on an Interferon-Gamma Release Assay (IGRA), used to detect latent or active tuberculosis infection (TB). While the test cannot distinguish between active and latent TB, it shows whether a person has been infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis and has developed an immune response.

πŸ” How to interpret the result?

  • A positive result indicates a possible TB infection. This could be either latent or active, so your doctor may recommend additional tests, such as a chest X-ray or sputum analysis.
  • A negative result means infection is unlikely, but it cannot be ruled out completely, especially if the person has symptoms consistent with TB or a weakened immune system.

What does a positive TB blood test mean?

A positive TB blood test suggests that your body has likely been exposed to TB bacteria. Most people with a positive blood test have a latent TB infection, which causes no symptoms and is not contagious β€” but without treatment, it can progress to active disease.

My journey back to health with Healsens. Thank you!!

That's when I turned to a nutritionist and ordered a blood test through Healsens. … Four months later, I retested. My biological age dropped to 24β€”nearly a decade younger than my real age.

Useful app to track analytics and 2nd opinion

It helps me track main parameters, understanding what do they mean and correlations, and make critical analysis to make preventative changes. Hope too see new fichas soon!

Everything is great! Excellent app! It's very convenient for storing all your test results! The only thing I wish was that you could record blood pressure readings for both arms, as this is sometimes important for blood pressure monitoring.

A useful app. It motivates me to lead a healthy lifestyle and monitor my diet. After the test results, I decided to change my diet – I cut out flour and chocolate. I lost 2 kg in about a week. We'll see how the test results look over time.
