...a chest x-ray is required to RULE OUT alive tuberculosis... What does RULE OUT imply contained by this sentence?

Does it mean to control, prevent, diminish, eliminate? I need to realize this. Thanks.

Answers:     To prove you don't have TB.
Literally, it means you have a detail of possibilities. As you check each and decide it is not the case, you bear a ruler, put it on that item on your list and draw a line through it, hence "ruled" out. ∠°)
eliminate - resources they want to ensure that it is not present
In this sentence it manner that they are looking for signs of T.B...If they can see it? Or Not!
English is an odd language isn't it? Can't always do a direct translation
It means remove. Not to eliminate it in a physical sense but as a contributory factor in the diagnosis.
It method that if you have active tuberculosis is will show up on the xray or if you have some other problem that will show up instead
Eliminate.

In medical lingo, if anything is ruled out, it always means they want to make sure that it isn't something.
eliminate
It means you have a problem for which active tuberculosis may be a possible explanation. The xray will any confirm that there are signs consistent with an active TB infection, or near is not. It will either confirm or eliminate TB as the cause. It won't control it, prevent it or destroy it. It will only detect it if you have active TB. I assume you hold had a positive skin test and the doctor wants to know if it is because you be exposed to TB or if you actually have it. If you have helpful TB, there are drugs to treat it so you can get rid of it. If you have a positive skin trial and do not have active TB, there are medicine that will ensure you never do either.
Hi Jamie,
ULE OUT is to ELIMINATE.

Rule out resources to make sure it's not tuberculosis.
