If you can answer “yes” to any of the statements on the TB screening form on the patient portal, further TB evaluation is required.
If you need additional screening or testing, a secure message will be sent to your patient portal with additional information.
If you have lived in any of the following countries within the last 5 years for 2 months or more, a tuberculosis blood test is required to determine if you have latent TB. A skin tuberculin or PPD test is not sufficient.
The TB blood test is an interferon-gamma release assay or IGRA blood test. Two common test names for this are Quantiferon Gold or T-Spot. If you have this blood test done in your home country, upload the result to the patient portal or email to mstshs@mst.edu.
The tuberculosis testing requirements can vary for the following risk factors: working in health care; being a resident, employee, or volunteer in a high-risk setting; if you have been considered medically underserved, low-income, abusing drugs or alcohol; or if you have had contact with a person with active tuberculosis disease.
If you have had a positive TB blood or skin test in your home country, you will need to have a chest x-ray completed within 6 months of your arrival to the US. This can be completed in your home country or through Student Health Services after your arrival. If a chest x-ray is completed in your home country, you will need to submit a copy of the report.
