    The GeneXpert MTB/XDR test is a rapid molecular diagnostic test that detects Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) and identifies extensively drug-resistant (XDR) tuberculosis by detecting genetic mutations associated with resistance to key anti-TB drugs. This test is crucial for early diagnosis, treatment selection, and preventing the spread of resistant TB.
TAT Policy

The Turnaround Time (TAT) for a test depends on the following factors:

  • Registration date and time
  • Type of scan or test
  • Scan time or sample collection time

Please note that in uncommon circumstances, TAT may be delayed due to the complexity of the test or reasons beyond our control. You will be informed about the estimated TAT at the time of registration or after completion of the test.
