FAQ

TB Skin Test ( Mantoux Test ) & Vaccination for Medical Students

What is the TB skin test (Mantoux test)?
The TB skin test checks for latent tuberculosis infection. A small amount of PPD (purified protein derivative) is injected under the skin of your forearm. If you’ve been exposed to TB, your body will react at the site.

You must return within 48 to 72 hours after the injection for a healthcare provider to check the reaction and measure any swelling (induration).

positive test indicates TB exposure or infection, not necessarily active disease. Further tests (e.g., chest X-ray) may be needed.

What happens if I miss the 48–72 hour window?

The test becomes invalid after 72 hours. You’ll need to repeat the test.

Avoid live vaccines (e.g., MMR, varicella) 4 weeks before the TB test. If given on the same day, it’s okay.

What vaccines are required for medical students?

Most institutions require:

  • Hepatitis B (3 doses + antibody titer)
  • MMR (Measles, Mumps, Rubella – 2 doses or positive titer)
  • Varicella (2 doses or positive titer)
  • Tetanus, Diphtheria, Pertussis (Tdap) – booster within last 10 years
  • Influenza – annually
  • COVID-19 – per current guidelines
  • TB test (Mantoux or IGRA) – upon entry and periodically

Usually mild. Possible slight redness or itching. Severe reactions are rare.
