CellaVision introduces CellaVision® Image Capture System for smaller laboratories within a hospital network
Product demonstrations will be taking place at the following shows:
ISLH, Nice, France, May 21-24, AACC, Los Angeles, USA, July 15-19 and IFBLS Congress, Berlin, Germany, Aug. 18-22.
CellaVision, which develops and sells products for routine analysis of blood and other body fluids in health care, is introducing the CellaVision® Image Capture System, its new cell morphology system for networked hospitals and associated laboratories. The product gives laboratories within the same network, no matter of size, the ability to share, review and store their manual blood tests, known as differential counts.
The new product is designed for smaller laboratories performing up to 15 cell differentials per day complementing the company's current digital cell morphology products that are marketed to laboratories with large and medium-size workloads.
"With the CellaVision® Image Capture System, CellaVision may now propose solutions to a greater variety of customer needs, including those of the smaller labs", says Peter Wilson, Marketing Manager at CellaVision. "Promoting collaboration and resource sharing, the system will allow the smaller laboratories to digitize their samples and have the analysis performed at the main lab. This means even the smallest labs can now become best practice in cell morphology."
The CellaVision Image Capture System is designed to utilize a laboratory's existing microscope. CellaVision software helps the technologist to find, focus and capture cell images, and then transmits the digital cells to a CellaVision DM96 or DM1200 in a main lab at another location where the review is performed.
