CellaVision's new application for analysis of body fluids pre-launched in the USA
The application for body fluids widens and strengthens CellaVision's product range for clinical chemistry laboratories. At present, the application is being evaluated by a number of European laboratories in order to establish the value of its functionality, capacity, and user friendliness. The first users are expected to be already existing users of the company's application for blood and the analysis instrument CellaVision DM96. Although quantitatively more blood is analysed, cerebrospinal fluid analysis is of prime importance to many laboratories.
- This is an important strategic move for us. This application widens our range of products available to both existing and future clients, which will have a positive effect on sales, says Yvonne Mårtensson, CEO of CellaVision.
The advantages of the new application are the same as those for blood - faster and more standardized results, digital archiving of samples together with patient records, as well as sharing of digital images with experts outside the laboratory.
CellaVision will pre-launch the new application alongside demonstrating the remaining range of products at the international trade convention AACC Annual Meeting & Clinical Lab Expo in California, USA, July 15-19. The convention is expecting around 20 000 visitors. At the show, CellaVision will also be represented by the company's distributor, Sysmex America.
