INDIANAPOLIS and CHICAGO; July 25, 2024 – Roche (SIX: RO, ROG; OTCQX: RHHBY) will showcase a laboratory of the future exhibit at the 2024 Association for Diagnostics & Laboratory Medicine (ADLM) Scientific Meeting and Clinical Lab Expo, July 28 through August 1 in Chicago. Attendees will have the opportunity to experience how Roche's growing portfolio of integrated systems and data solutions optimizes resources and simplifies and streamlines operations while driving better
health outcomes.
“Laboratorians strive to deliver trusted, timely test results to patients with greater effectiveness and efficiency. Our latest generation of cobas® solutions are proven to deliver seamless integration of systems and data to support these efforts,” said Brad Moore, president and CEO of Roche Diagnostics North America. “We are excited to share these next-generation solutions, which are the building blocks for future laboratories, and are eager to partner with our customers so that they can both do more with less and deliver the best possible outcomes for patients.”
Focusing on key attributes of science-based leadership, operational simplicity and patient-centric partnership, Roche will feature its newest innovations in-booth at ADLM, including:
- The future cobas® Mass Spec solution*, is designed to be a total end-to-end solution for clinical mass spectrometry testing with the goal of seamless integration into the routine laboratory.
- The new CCM Vertical is a flexible modular system that uses lab space effectively and seamlessly integrates into the existing cobas® connection modules.
- The cobas® liat system brings gold-standard PCR technology to the point of care, providing results within 20 minutes across a growing menu of assays, now including the cobas liat SARS-CoV-2, Influenza A/B & RSV assay** to test for four common respiratory viruses, all within one test.
- The cobas® pure integrated solutions combine clinical chemistry, immunoassay and Ion-Selective Electrode (ISE) diagnostic testing on a single platform for low- to mid-volume testing needs.
- The cobas® eplex system, a rapid syndromic molecular diagnostic solution, has been updated with new features across all aspects of the workflow process.
- The cobas® 5800 is a compact, fully automated molecular PCR-testing solution with a comprehensive menu of assays.
- The LightCycler® PRO is a qPCR system designed to deliver accuracy and flexibility to research in and clinical diagnostic laboratories with an improved user experience.
With the largest diagnostics installed base worldwide, Roche provides unrivaled ability to scale access to testing at speed for those who need it most. The cobas® reagent portfolio offers the broadest menu on an integrated platform and includes the Elecsys® Alzheimer's cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) assays, aiming to more effectively detect and support an Alzheimer’s diagnosis.
Roche will also present eight Roche Idea Lab segments in booth 2003, where experts will discuss topics such as mass spectrometry, digital solutions, respiratory testing, and the use of high-medical-value assays when treating Alzheimer’s and heart failure. Scientific industry workshops will include “Laboratorians’ Perspectives on Evaluation and Implementation of Alzheimer’s CSF Assays” and “Making a Subjective Sepsis Diagnosis More Objective: The Role of AI-based Sepsis Medical Algorithms in Empowering Healthcare Decisions.” For more information about Roche’s participation at ADLM 2024 and Roche Idea Lab programming, visit ADLM.roche.com.
