The Desmond Tutu Tuberculosis Centre (DTTC) is an academic research centre located in the Department of Paediatrics and Child Health, Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences, Cape Town, South Africa, established in 2003. In 2004, Archbishop Emeritus Desmond Tutu became its patron and the centre was formally named.
The The Desmond Tutu TB Centre (DTTC) is well-recognized as a global leader in paediatric tuberculosis (TB) research with expertise in diagnostics, epidemiology and the prevention and treatment of TB.
The CXR contributed by the DTTC to this Image Library were taken from children enrolled on TB diagnostic studies – we acknowledge all members of the research teams who worked on these studies as well as the children and their families.
