Description
Holograms, artificial intelligence, and functionalized radio filters, oh my! Diagnostic laboratory technologies are rapidly evolving to improve patient care and clinic operations. Novel biomarkers, expanded test menus, and improved accuracy will be increasingly available at the point of care. This lecture will cover several new technologies coming soon to clinical practice, including holographic cell reconstruction, and surface acoustic wave biosensors, as well as several technologies currently available but not widely used. Learn about the lab of tomorrow today! RACE #
