The classic bacteriological investigation represents the gold-standard in the diagnosis of tuberculosis. Its disadvantages (the long time until the culture's results, low specificity and sensitivity) imposed certain other rapid and accurate investigations in this field; on the other hand, these tests are much more expensive and demand high technology and dedicated laboratory staff The review presents these new modalities in the diagnosis of tuberculosis (emphasizing the nucleic acid amplification tests) with actual international recommendations for their use.
经典的细菌学检查是结核病诊断的金标准。其缺点（培养结果所需时间长、特异性和敏感性低）促使该领域采用其他一些快速准确的检查方法；另一方面，这些检查成本更高，需要高科技和专业的实验室工作人员。本文综述了结核病诊断的这些新方法（重点介绍核酸扩增试验）以及当前的国际使用建议。
