In this episode of Clinical Lab Chat, Chris Wolski and his guest, medical lead at Hurdle, Alex Owens, MD, MPH, discuss the reasons for the rise of at-home testing during COVID, how at-home testing improves healthcare access, and the win-win-win it brings to clinical laboratories.
Full-Field Cell Morphology™ represents significant progress in standardization, efficiency, remote workflow capability, and scalability of hematological examination. It fundamentally changes laboratory practice and closes the gap between the manual and digital peripheral blood smear review.
Some of the brightest minds in the industry shared their perspectives on the latest developments in laboratory science, along with the essentials of CLIA compliance and accreditation - and the CLP team was there to take it all in and share some highlights with you in our most recent podcast!
