Climbing the Ladder to Optimal Outcomes in NTM-LD: Navigating a Clear Path from Diagnosis Thru Treatment

Program Overview

Despite an increasing incidence and prevalence, NTM-LD is challenging and often delayed due to non-specific symptoms, indolent disease course, and similarities to tuberculosis and other lung diseases; several barriers to its treatment also persist.
