Home > News > Pathologists Watch as New Lab-on-a-Chip Technology Is Developed for Testing Patients in Doctor’s Offices
December 27th, 2010
Abstract:
New microfluidic nanotechnology has the potential to create reliable "mini-labs" that can allow physicians to do many of the same medical laboratory tests in their offices that are currently performed in the today's more complex clinical laboratories and anatomic pathology groups.
Some experts predict that recent advancements in lab-on-a-chip devices can make it possible for physicians to perform in-office many tests that are the mainstay of the medical laboratory industry, and possibly even produce superior results for a fraction of the cost.
