Editor note to PET-CT-guided characterisation of progressive, preclinical tuberculosis infection and its association with low-level circulating Mycobacterium tuberculosis DNA in household contacts in Leicester, UK: a prospective cohort study

An Expression of Concern related to this manuscript was published while the paper was under investigation by the corresponding author's institute, the University of Leicester. The institutional review found no cause for concern in the conduct of the study. A Department of Error will be issued to correct some transcriptional errors in some of the data identified by the authors and to provide further detail on some of the methodologies, but the editors consider the matter otherwise resolved, with no further concerns regarding the paper.
