Nontuberculous Mycobacterial Infections (Disease/Disorder Overview) (Clinical Report)
Nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) comprise a variety of species and are responsible for a wide range of clinical syndromes. They encompass all mycobacterial species other than Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTB) and Mycobacterium leprae.
