Full guideline

In March 2011 NICE published its clinical guideline (CG117) on the diagnosis and management of tuberculosis, and measures for its prevention and control. This guideline updated parts of NICE clinical guideline 33, published in March 2006, which concern tests for the diagnosis of latent TB. In line with NICE’s digitalisation strategy, the algorithms in the full version of the guideline and in the NICE quick reference guide supporting the updated guideline have now been replaced by a NICE pathway. The pathway is an interactive web-based tool for health and social care professionals providing fast access to the NICE guidance and associated products.
