Our infectious‑disease division leverages the Thermo Fisher QuantStudio 12K Flex platform to run high‑throughput multiplex PCR panels that pinpoint pathogens—and their resistance markers—within hours. This state‑of‑the‑art technology screens for a full spectrum of infections from urine, wound, fungal, and respiratory sources, all in a single run, ensuring no pathogen is overlooked.
By delivering precise, same‑day answers, we help clinicians “treat right the first time,” eliminating guesswork, curbing unnecessary broad‑spectrum antibiotics, and accelerating patient recovery. Actionable resistance data empowers stewardship efforts and safeguards future efficacy, while our bi‑directional EMR interfaces feed results straight into clinical workflows for immediate decision‑making. The outcome is faster relief for patients, reduced readmissions, and measurable savings for practices and payers alike.
