How Do T-cells Affect Your IGRA TB Test Results? - Tuberculosis Disease Guide
How Do T-cells Affect Your IGRA TB Test Results? Have you ever wondered how your immune system responds to tuberculosis infection and how this affects TB testing? In this informative video, we'll explain the role of T-cells in the IGRA TB test. We'll start by describing what T-cells are and how they detect TB bacteria through specific proteins. You'll learn how these immune cells produce a signaling molecule called interferon-gamma, which the IGRA test measures to determine if you've been exposed to tuberculosis. We’ll discuss how the test works, including the different methods used to assess T-cell activity and what positive, negative, or indeterminate results mean. Additionally, we'll cover factors that can influence T-cell responses, such as immune system health, medications, and recent exposure. Understanding the function of T-cells helps clarify why test results may vary and how immune system conditions can impact accuracy. If you're concerned about TB or your immune health, this video will help you understand how immune responses are involved in testing outcomes.
