How Delft Imaging technology and local partnerships transformed X-ray access and care delivery in Thailand.

Thailand’s battles for equity in health, with Delft Imaging

Tuberculosis remains a significant public health challenge in Thailand. Despite progress in reducing TB-related deaths, gaps in diagnosis, TB-HIV co-infection, and drug-resistant TB continue to highlight the need for expanded access to timely screening and treatment.

Our work in Thailand

To address ongoing TB challenges, Thailand has adopted innovative approaches through strategic partnerships. With support from the Global Fund, the Shoklo Malaria Research Unit (SMRU) delivers TB screening services to migrant populations along the Thai–Myanmar border in Tak Province. These communities often face limited access to quality healthcare, and SMRU’s work integrates TB screening with broader maternal, child health, and infectious disease services.
