Tuberculosis is diagnosed by finding Mycobacterium tuberculosis bacteria in a clinical specimen taken from the patient. While other investigations may strongly suggest tuberculosis as the diagnosis, they cannot confirm it.
A complete medical evaluation for tuberculosis must include a medical history, a physical examination, a chest X-ray and microbiological examination. It may also include a tuberculin skin test, other scans and X-rays, surgical biopsy.
