Nontuberculous Mycobacteria (NTM)
The largest Nontuberculous Mycobacteria program in the Southeast.
The only program of its kind in South Carolina and the largest in the Southeast, the Nontuberculous Mycobacteria (NTM) Program at MUSC is dedicated to the specialized care of patients with suspected or confirmed nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) infection (in the lung or elsewhere).Our team works together to support every aspect of your care. Pulmonary and infectious disease specialists partner with experts in pharmacy, respiratory therapy, mental health, microbiology, radiology, and cardiothoracic surgery. This collaborative approach ensures you receive the most thorough evaluation and a personalized treatment plan.
In addition to expert care, you may also have access to new treatment options through our clinical research program, giving you opportunities not available elsewhere.
What is Nontuberculous Mycobacteria?
NTM are bacteria that are common in our environment, for example in water and soil. NTM can cause infections of the lungs, skin, and other tissues and organs, and these infections can be challenging to diagnose and treat. The multidisciplinary team at the MUSC Nontuberculous Mycobacteria Program works with each patient to develop and undertake an individualized, comprehensive treatment approach. Our team has the depth and breadth of expertise to address all facets of NTM infections in one clinic location.
NTM infections are treated with a combination of antibiotics as well as complementary therapies to treat the underlying condition. However, not all NTM infections need to be treated, which is why a comprehensive evaluation is necessary to define the best treatment regimen for each patient.
We are committed to partnering with patients, their families, and their local clinical care providers to achieve the best possible outcomes.
