My husband go for qvc medical. They said there is a thin line shown in chest xray so they advised him to go for Quantiferon external blood test. He gave the sample and then they told to wait till monday. On the otherhand i am already working in a reputed hospital in Isb so i asked my husband to go for HRCt chest for our own safety . according to radiologist his CT report is clear. Alhumdulilah. Now can you please guide me why they ask for TB test, nd how much days it take to clear

Quantiferon report will take 2-3 days and QVC will submit report then to the Qatar authorities (MoPH). Normally,  they take Quantiferon if they suspect that person has ever been exposed to TB.  CT report doesn't really matter. You should pray that results of Quantiferon turns out negative because if they found that person has ever been exposed, they will declare person unfit and visa will get cancel .

I totally understand but when they are unclear about X ray they usually recommend CT Scan or Quantiferon. The thin line can be due to various reasons that physician can explain better. Quantiferon has been a pain for many peoples who are seeking to migrate to Qatar. Quantiferon only tells that if a person has ever been exposed to TB germ i.e if a person himself doesn't have any history of TB, most likely he may come in contact with someone who had TB at office or in family which sometimes we are not familiar of.
