Tb Active Latent → Treatment Person Infected With  M.Tuberculosis 

Latent TB involves infection with M.tuberculosis where the tuberculin test is positive, but the individual does not have active TB; treatment is typically 9 months of isoniazid, with negative chest X-rays and sputum tests to rule out active disease.

Gizli TB'de, tüberkülin testi pozitif olan ancak aktif TB'si olmayan bir kişi M.tuberculosis ile enfekte olmuştur; tedavi genellikle 9 aylık izoniazid ile yapılır ve aktif TB'yi dışlamak için akciğer grafisi ve balgam testleri negatif olmalıdır.
