Tuberculosis is an infectious disease cause by bacterium and it is mainly affects the lungs. Recently it kills three million people a year. In very first Aristotle was to say that tuberculosis is an airborne disease. It is able to spread from one person to another. The symptoms of Tb is may vary depending on what type of tuberculosis may occur The starting stage of disease means may be symptom free, it is called as inactive stage. TB is active stage means slight fever, night sweat, weight loss, and fatigue is appear. In this survey paper we discussed various types of TB diseases and segmentation methods. The proposed computer aided diagnostic system for TB screening, which is ready for field deployment, achieves a performance of human experts. We achieve an area under the ROCcurve (AUC) of 90 %( 81% of accuracy) for the first set and an (AUC) of 95% (86% of accuracy) for the second set.
