Hi TB Nurses,

Has anyone completed training for their Coroner on TB?  Our Coroner is looking for training when TB is suspected, confirmed, or not on the differential.  We spoke with our lab but they didn’t have any special information related to postmortem sample collection. 

Thank you for any ideas!
