Nontuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) infections, a non-contagious cousin of tuberculosis, has shown a marked increase in the U.S. population in recent years. Many NTM patients also develop bronchiectasis, a condition that inhibits the ability to naturally clear mucus and bacteria from the airways and puts individuals at ever-increasing risk of infection.
