Improved treatment outcome of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis with the use of a rapid molecular test to detect drug resistance in China

•Molecular drug susceptibility testing (DST) significantly reduced time to multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) diagnosis.•Molecular DST contributed to a decreased time to culture conversion and improved treatment outcome.•Molecular DST provided convincing evidence to better guide the MDR-TB tr...
