Tuberculosis

Tuberculosis is a transferable infection that usually attacks the lungs. It can also spread to other portions of the body, like the brain and spine. A type of bacteria called Mycobacterium tuberculosis causes it. The classic symptoms of active TB are a chronic cough with blood-containing mucus, fever, night sweats, and weight loss. It was historically called "consumption" due to the weight loss. Infection of other organs can cause a wide range of signs. Tuberculosis is spread through the air when people who have active TB in their lungs cough, spit, speak, or sneeze. Active infection occurs more often in people with HIV/AIDS and in those who smoke. Analysis of active TB is based on chest X-rays, as well as minute inspection and culture of body fluids. Diagnosis of latent TB relies on the tuberculin skin test (TST) or blood tests.
