'''EXPAND-TB''' ('''Exp'''anding '''A'''ccess to '''N'''ew '''D'''iagnostics for '''TB''') is a [[UNITAID]]-funded project launched in 2009, which aims to increase access to [[tuberculosis]] (TB) [[diagnostic tests]] in 27 [[Endemism|endemic]] countries.<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://www.finddiagnostics.org/programs/scaling_up/unitaid_expand_tb/# |title=FIND - About the EXPAND-TB project |access-date=2011-04-06 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20111002004811/http://www.finddiagnostics.org/programs/scaling_up/unitaid_expand_tb/# |archive-date=2011-10-02 |url-status=dead }}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.stoptb.org/news/stories/2010/ns10_033.asp|title=Stop TB Partnership - Boosted EXPAND-TB agreement will broaden access to MDR-TB diagnosis|website=www.stoptb.org|access-date=2011-04-06|archive-date=2010-11-30|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20101130180215/http://stoptb.org/news/stories/2010/ns10_033.asp|url-status=dead}}</ref>
 
The overall goal of the project is to narrow the huge diagnostic gap in [[multi-drug-resistant tuberculosis]] (MDR-TB) control by expanding and accelerating access to new and rapid diagnostic technologies within appropriate laboratory services, accompanied by the necessary technology transfer, and ensuring these new technologies are properly integrated within TB control programmes.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.stoptb.org/wg/gli/assets/documents/factsheet_expand_tb.pdf |title=Assets |website=www.stoptb.org }}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.stoptb.org/wg/gli/assets/documents/EXPAND-TB%20project%20information.pdf |title=Documents |website=www.stoptb.org }}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |url=http://www.unitaid.eu/en/mdr-tb-diagnostics.html# |title=Expanding and accelerating access to diagnostics for patients at risk of MDR-TB |access-date=2011-04-06 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110724153748/http://www.unitaid.eu/en/mdr-tb-diagnostics.html# |archive-date=2011-07-24 |url-status=dead }}</ref>
