The SITT (Single Intradermal Tuberculin Test) is a diagnostic test used to detect tuberculosis (TB) infection. It involves injecting a small amount of purified protein derivative (PPD) into the skin and assessing the reaction after 48 to 72 hours. A significant induration at the injection site indicates a positive result, suggesting TB exposure or infection. This test is particularly useful in situations where other screening methods, like the IGRA blood tests, are not available or feasible.
