Recent progress in tuberculosis diagnosis: insights into blood-based biomarkers and emerging technologies.

ABSTRACT: Tuberculosis (TB) remains a global health challenge, with timely and accurate diagnosis being critical for effective disease management and control. Recent advancements in the field of TB diagnostics have focused on the identification and utilization of blood-based biomarkers, offering a non-invasive, rapid, and scalable approach to disease detection. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the latest progress in blood-based biomarkers for TB, highlighting their potential to revolutionize diagnostic strategies. Furthermore, we explore emerging technologies such as NGS, PET-CT, Xpert and line probe assays, which have enhanced the sensitivity, specificity, and accessibility of biomarker-based diagnostics. The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) in b
