  • Title: Management of tuberculosis: altered role of the primary care physician.
    Author: Hinshaw HC.
    Journal: Postgrad Med; 1977 Apr; 61(4):52-8. PubMed ID: 850669.
    Abstract:
    Increasing incidence of tuberculosis is being reported in some areas, even though greater precision in diagnosis and greater reliability in treatment have been achieved within recent years than were previously possible. The Mantoux test is a convenient office procedure that should be done more often. Patients with active tuberculosis can now be treated on an outpatient basis with little morbidity or social or economic disruption.
