A sample of blood is sent to a lab. One lab test finds out whether certain immune system cells can recognize tuberculosis. A positive test shows that you have either a latent TB infection or active TB disease. Other tests of the blood sample can help determine if you have active disease.
There are two tests that are used to determine if a person has been infected with TB bacteria: TB blood tests (Interferon Gamma Release Assay [IGRA]) and the TB skin test (Mantoux tuberculin skin test).
TST Documentation Requirements Name and signature of person administering test. Date and time test administered. Location of test (e.g., right forearm, left forearm, alternate site) Tuberculin manufacturer, lot number and expiration date.
Ask your health care provider for a written record of your positive TB skin test result. This will be helpful if you are asked to have another TB test in the future.
At time of reading: Name and signature of person reading test. Date and time test read. Exact number of mm of induration (if no induration, document 0 mm) Interpretation of reading (i.e., positive or negative, based on individuals risk factors)

The skin test involves receiving a small injection in your forearm and measuring the small bump, or induration, that appears after 48 to 72 hours. Depending on the size of the induration and your risk of TB exposure, the doctor will determine whether you tested positive or negative for TB.
CDC guidelines recommend using TB blood tests to test for TB infection in most cases. However, TB skin tests are an acceptable alternative in situations where a TB blood test is not available, is too costly, or is too burdensome. Most people can receive a TB skin test.
