Foundation for Innovative New Diagnostics

FIND is a Product Development and Implementation Partnership (PDIP) devoted to developing and implementing diagnostic tools for poverty-related diseases. An independent non-profit foundation based in Geneva with offices in Uganda and India, FIND focuses on a disease portfolio covering tuberculosis, malaria and human African trypanosomiasis. In its commitment to develop technologies that can be used as near as possible to where patients first seek care, FIND has accumulated an impressive pipeline of new diagnostic technologies.

BCG World Atlas

Variations in BCG vaccination practices impact the interpretation of TB diagnostics, such as the widely used Tuberculin Skin Test (TST). The World Atlas of BCG Policies and Practices will help clinicians make better diagnostic decisions concerning TB infection. These data are available for use as a searchable online tool for physicians and researchers alike.

The Online TST/IGRA Interpreter

The tool estimates the risk of active tuberculosis for an individual with a tuberculin skin test reaction of ≥5mm, based on his/her clinical profile. It is intended for adults tested with standard tuberculin (5 TU PPDS, or 2 TU RT-23) and/or a commercial Interferon Gamma release assay (IGRA).
