What the study is about

SPOT-TB (Screening with Portable X-rays for rapid recOgniTion of TB) is a prospective study evaluating a community-based tuberculosis (TB) screening strategy for migrant populations in New York City. The screening intervention integrates mobile ultra-portable digital chest radiography with artificial intelligence-assisted image interpretation, tuberculosis symptom assessment, latent tuberculosis infection testing, and HIV testing. Participants with concerning screening findings are referred for appropriate clinical evaluation. The study will evaluate the feasibility, acceptability, and effectiveness of this integrated screening strategy for improving early identification of active pulmonary tuberculosis and linkage to care in community settings.

Being studied: Mobile chest radiography for tuberculosis screening

Conditions: Tuberculosis (TB); Tuberculosis Infection, Latent; HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus)
