What is the TB Gold (QuantiFERON-TB Gold) test?
The Interferon Gamma Release Assay (IGRA), like QuantiFERON-TB Gold, is a blood test used to diagnose a tuberculosis (TB) infection. When your body is exposed to Mycobacterium tuberculosis bacteria, your immune system responds by releasing interferon-gamma (IFN-γ) from T cells (a type of white blood cell). The IGRA, QuantiFERON-TB Gold test measures this response. During the test, a blood sample is mixed with TB-specific antigens. If the T cells release IFN-γ in response, it indicates a TB infection. If you live and have symptoms like persistent cough, unexplained weight loss, or night sweats, you may need an IGRA (QuantiFERON-TB Gold) test. This blood test helps diagnose TB infection by detecting immune responses to TB bacteria.
