Experts believe compressive sensing could find wide application in medical laboratory and pathology testing, particularly where large amounts of data are generated Pathologists and medical laboratory managers may soon be working with a new tool in their labs. It is called “Compressive Sensing” (CS) and it is an innovative mathematical approach that quickly and efficiently gets an answer by sampling large volumes of a data. Currently compressive sensing is used in medical imaging technology. CS...

Rapid gene sequencing technology will give medical laboratories a new diagnostic tool Rapidly-evolving molecular diagnostics technology is about to trigger a major expansion in pre-conception genetic testing. In turn, this could benefit clinical laboratories and pathology groups as they begin to offer these genetic tests to help prospective parents screen their DNA for recessive gene mutations that cause 448 deadly childhood diseases in offspring. This breakthrough medical laboratory test...
