How does the quantiferon-tb gold test works?

The QuantiFERON-TB Gold test is a blood test that detects the immune response to specific proteins associated with Mycobacterium tuberculosis. When a person's immune system has been exposed to the bacteria, it produces certain cytokines in response to these proteins. The test measures the amount of interferon-gamma released by T-cells when exposed to the TB antigens. A higher level of interferon-gamma indicates a possible infection with tuberculosis, distinguishing it from previous vaccinations or infections with non-tuberculous mycobacteria.
