BACKGROUND The correctional setting presents an opportunity for latent TB infection (LTBI) screening in an otherwise difficult to reach demographic. We evaluate factors associated with the fidelity of the tuberculin skin test (TST) and interferon-gamma release assay (IGRA), specifically the QuantiFERON®-TB Gold In-Tube assay (QFT-GIT), explain factors associated with discordance, and report LTBI treatment outcomes.METHODS We describe the association between demographic and clinical variables, and predictors of concordance
