Abstract
Background: Chest radiography, or chest X-ray (CXR), is not only an important tool for triaging and screening for pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) but is also useful in aiding diagnosis when pulmonary TB cannot be confirmed bacteriologically. Sabah is a state with high TB burden with the incidence rate of 124/100,000 population in 2015. Access to chest radiography is limited in many settings in Sabah. In 2016, the TB and Leprosy Control Unit of Sabah State Health Department started systematic screening for TB with the help of a mobile digital X-ray unit. 
 Keywords: tuberculosis, systematic screening, mobile digital chest radiography
