Siemens Adds Three New Haematology Systems to its Portfolio of Scalable Solutions

Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics recently announced the launch of three new scalable haematology systems: the ADVIA 360 System, ADVIA 560 System, and ADVIA 560 AL System. These lower capacity systems offer state-of-the-art haematology testing capabilities for small to mid-sized laboratories and may also be used as back-up systems for larger laboratories.

Engineered for safety and ease-of-operation, the new ADVIA haematology systems help optimise and manage workflow through several convenient features, such as the choice of open- or closed-tube sampling and customisable result printing. Automatic anti-clogging and cleaning procedures are employed to ensure results reliability. Along with automated maintenance, this reduces manual procedures and biohazard exposure.

The systems offer fast, high quality CBC testing, running up to 60 samples per hour. Other system features include: the option for manual or automatic calibration procedures, a cap-piercing function for accurate and safer sampling, a multilingual operating menu and bidirectional LIS communication for easy patient data transfer between laboratories and minimised paper-based work lists.
