Abstract

Nontuberculous mycobacterial infections due to autoantibodies targeting interferon-gamma are an emerging medical problem. However, case finding is hampered due to highly complex diagnostic procedures not available in routine laboratories. We show that QuantiFERON assays can be exploited as a simple screening tool that may facilitate adequate and timely treatment.
