the size of induration following a tuberculin test that signifies that the sixteen year old client has in fact tested positive is 5mm. A tuberculin test, often referred to as the Mantoux or Mendel-Mantoux test, is a procedure that is used to screen people for tuberculosis. It is a skin test that is used widely around the world, it replace the multiple puncture tests of the past like the tine test.
