Conventional methods like smear and culture are either less sensitive or time consuming. Newer diagnostic tools such as BacT/Alert and Polymerase chain reaction takes less time with high sensitivity. However, both false negative and false positive results are reported on PCR, so PCR alone should not be used as a criterion for initiating or terminating the therapy.
