What Is a Sputum Test

A Sputum Test in Navi Mumbai checks the thick mucus produced by the lungs. This mucus carries signs of infection or inflammation. The test can detect bacterial and fungal infections, as well as conditions that require further evaluation by cytology. A doctor may recommend it if you have a long-lasting cough, blood in sputum, chest tightness, fever, or suspicion of tuberculosis. A Sputum AFB Test is specifically designed to detect acid-fast bacilli, including those responsible for tuberculosis.

The sample is collected early in the morning to improve accuracy. Once submitted to the lab, a stain may be applied to the specimen to highlight the organisms present. The lab technician checks a positive slide to confirm the presence of specific microorganisms. A regular report indicates no harmful organisms, while an abnormal result guides further treatment steps.
