Our Technology

Some of our technology includes:

  • The Siemens Dimension RxL, which is used to analyze urine samples for drug abuse, assess how a diabetic patient is managing his or her disease and assess the general health of patients.
  • The Sysmex XT-2000i, a hematology analyzer, is primarily designed to do blood counts. This state-of-the-art piece of equipment does a six-part differential, which means it counts the blood cells in a sample and categorizes these microscopic cells into five categories based on each cell's characteristics. In a short amount of time this machine can help determine whether a newborn is producing blood, detect infections, assess a patient's ability to produce cells appropriately in the
    bone marrow or help determine if a cancer patient needs a blood transfusion because of a low blood platelet or hemoglobin and hematocrit count.
