Tuberculosis diagnostics technology landscape report
10 July 2012 - Rapid, accurate diagnosis of tuberculosis (TB) is critical for timely initiation of treatment, and ultimately, control of the disease. The TB diagnostic technology landscape describes existing TB diagnostics and the pipeline of expected future methods and tools; characterizes unmet needs and the extent to which the pipeline may address these; and highlights areas of persisting market shortcomings.
This report is part of a broader effort by UNITAID to identify opportunities to create new markets, catalyse markets for underutilized products, and address market inefficiencies towards increased access to medicines. UNITAID’s landscape analyses for medicines and diagnostics markets for HIV, tuberculosis and malaria guide priority-setting for UNITAID and other organizations.
