Your doctor might order this test if you have persistent respiratory symptoms like a cough or pneumonia that doesn't respond to typical treatments, or to confirm a suspected infection. The test involves collecting a sample from your respiratory tract (such as a cough sample, throat swab, or lung fluid), which is then analyzed in a laboratory using special technology to identify the bacteria.
