TB Skin Test (Mantoux Test)

---

You are in the right place if you are required to do Tuberculosis skin test screening (aka PPD Skin Test, Mantoux Test) for your school or your career!  

What's the process for TB skin test?

You need to book TWO in-person appointments (48-72 hours apart).

On your first appointment, a small amount of Tubersol is injected just under the skin of your forearm to create a small bump. 

On your second appointment, 48 to 72 hours after the test, your forearm will be examined to determine the test results. In this visit, you will be given the test results to give to your school or employer.  

Please note the appointments cannot be less than 48 hours or more than 72 hours apart.  If you miss your second appointment, the test becomes invalid and you will need to redo the test.
