Optical Genome Mapping Enables Constitutional Chromosomal Aberration Detection
Optical genome mapping (OGM) is a novel method that fills this void by being able to detect all classes of structural variations (SVs), including copy number variations (CNVs). OGM is being adopted by laboratories as a tool for both postnatal constitutional genetic disorders and hematological malignancies. More...20 Jul 2021

Diagnostica Stago Introduces New MyOptiLab Workflow Analysis Service
Diagnostica Stago (Asnières-sur-Seine, France) has introduced its new MyOptiLab workflow analysis service as part of a broader strategy aimed at working more closely with laboratories. It is an elaborate process designed to optimize organizational excellence. More...15 Jul 2021



MRD Assessed by Multiparameter Flow Cytometry in Transplant-Eligible Myeloma
Multiple myeloma (MM) treatment has considerably improved in the past 15–20 years. The current paradigm for transplant-eligible newly diagnosed MM (NDMM) patients consists of induction, stem-cell mobilization and autologous stem-cell transplantation (ASCT), followed by consolidation and/or maintenance. More...05 Jul 2021

Monocyte Distribution Width Evaluated as a Sepsis Indicator
Most current automated hematology analyzers have enhanced cell counting functions including the addition of new cell types such as nucleated red blood cells or immature granulocytes, making it possible to obtain a precise quantification of peripheral blood cells in pathological conditions.

Leukocyte Differential on Hematology Analyzer Compared and Evaluated
A complete blood count (CBC), also known as a full blood count (FBC), is a set of medical laboratory tests that provide information about the cells in a person's blood. The CBC indicates the counts of white blood cells, red blood cells and platelets, the concentration of hemoglobin, and the hematocrit (the volume percentage of red blood cells). More...21 Jun 2021
