Help desk reply The help desk tells me that the purpose for this test is to rule out a false positive skin test. If the QF is positive, it simply is documented proof that a TB skin test is no longer required. I was also told that a positive QF is not a DQ. Thanks all.

***crickets*** Anybody?

Can someone school me as to what DODMERB will do with a QuantiFERON result after a positive PPD? Obviously negative means negative, but is an positive QFT result a DQ? I am confused. Or, does a Positive QFT then simply require a negative chest xray (to R/O TB)?
