<p>*1 slide only.</p
Sensitivity and specificity for detection of TB in slides prepared from sputum samples from TB suspects.
<p>*one-sided, 97.5% confidence interval.</p><p>A different grading scheme was used for routine FM and hence grading results were excluded from analysis.</p
Intra and inter-reader variability.
<p>Intra-reader variability refers to re-reading of slides by the same reader.</p><p>Inter-reader variability refers to re-reading of slides by a second reader.</p><p>HFP, high false positive; LFP, low false positive; LFN, low false negative; QE, quantification error.</p
