Types of TB test. There are a range of tests to show if you have TB, such as a sputum test, a culture test and x-rays. Chest x-ray. A chest x-ray can show damage in your lungs, but you might need further tests to prove you have TB, such as sputum and culture tests or scans.
What if I tested positive to a TB skin test previously? The QuantiFERON TB Blood Test is useful for people who have tested positively on a TB skin test. Rather than getting a chest x-ray, you can use this test to differentiate between a false positive and a false negative skin test.
