Laboratorians and clinicians often rely on package inserts of diagnostic tests to assess their accuracy. We compared test accuracy for tuberculosis diagnostics reported in 19 package inserts against estimates in published meta-analyses and found that package inserts generally report overoptimistic accuracy estimates. However, package inserts of most tests approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) or endorsed by the World Health Organization provide more realistic estimates that agree with meta-analyses.
