Mycobacterium Complex – PCR (Urine) Test – Short Description:

The Mycobacterium Complex PCR (Urine) test detects the DNA of *Mycobacterium* species, including *Mycobacterium tuberculosis* and non-tuberculous mycobacteria, in a urine sample. This test is commonly used to diagnose genitourinary tuberculosis or other mycobacterial infections affecting the urinary tract. PCR is a sensitive and rapid method that can identify mycobacterial DNA even in cases where traditional culture methods may be slow or negative, allowing for early detection and treatment of tuberculosis or mycobacterial infections in the kidneys, bladder, or urinary system.
