oldest known diseases in human. According to its high prevalence in Iran, using
a diagnostic procedure with more rapid result than culture, more sensitive and
specific than smear and near to culture can help us to diagnose and treat the
disease rapidly and accurately, and thus control it in the community. So we
decided to evaluate PCR for the diagnosis of Tuberculosis in Broncho-alveolar
Lavage (BAL) and compare it with smear. &lt;o:p /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot; size=&quot;3&quot;&gt; &lt;/font&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0in 0in 0pt text-align: justify line-height: normal text-justify: kashida text-kashida: 0%&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;,&quot;serif&quot;&quot;&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;Methods:&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;,&quot;serif&quot;&quot;&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;3&quot;&gt; Patients who were admitted at
