If my chest X-ray is abnormal, I will receive individual counselling and an explanation of the further testing
procedures.
If my chest X-ray is abnormal, and changes are suggestive of tuberculosis, regardless of whether these
changes are old or new, or if there are other clinical reasons to suspect TB, I will have to provide 3 sputum
samples which will be tested for TB with smear and culture. I understand that the results of sputum cultures
may take up to ten weeks
If sputum samples are necessary, I will be required to return for sputum collection on 3 consecutive mornings
starting within 7 days of my chest X-ray. If I fail to return within 7 days, I will forfeit the opportunity to obtain a
TB Certificate.
If the smear or culture shows the presence of TB bacteria, I will be referred for TB treatment. Treatment shall
be at my own expense; I will inform the TB treatment facility that I have close family contacts, who may need
evaluation for TB.
I have the right to refuse to undergo the TB assessment procedure and TB treatment, but accept such a refusal
may adversely impact on my UK visa application.
I understand that the physician has the final decision about whether I receive a Certificate
Female applicants: All female applicants will be asked about their last menstrual period to identify applicants who
possibly may be pregnant:
If I could be pregnant, I will be offered several alternatives; 1) a chest X-ray with protective shield; 2). I can
postpone the CXR (and TB clearance) until after delivery or 3) I can opt to provide 3 sputum samples for
laboratory examination.
I acknowledge that a CXR can carry a risk for the unborn child, but this risk is quite small in the second and
third trimester. I am therefore advised to consult the panel physician and may wish to consult my gynaecologist
to understand the risks before I take a chest X-ray. If I decide to submit to an X-ray, this shall be at my own
risk.
I hereby:
I have read this consent form, or had translated for me. I was invited to ask questions to clarify what was not clear
to me. I understand the content of this declaration.
