🥇 Last month, we launched the UK's first robotic genome testing facility for cancer patients with our partner Automata - a leading automation company powering automation in life sciences labs. This innovative installation will double our genetic testing capacity and expand the range of tests we perform within our existing lab space. 🔬 How does the technology work? Through Automata’s LINQ platform, sample pathways for saliva, tissue biopsies, blood and bone marrow are being automated. LINQ is a ‘smart’ laboratory bench that houses and connects equipment using robotic and digital technology. Equipped with six robotic arms, the specialist cancer centre’s installation will substantially increase the throughput of the cancer testing lab without compromising on accuracy. It will primarily test for mutations in the BRCA genes, which can impact risk of various cancers including breast and ovarian. 📈 What impact will this have? With increased capacity thanks to automation, we will not only be able to process more somatic tests but also launch new genetic – or cancer germline - testing. This type of genomic testing identifies inherited genetic changes that can increase risk of cancer and, for patients with the disease, can also be used to identify the right treatments. Patients at The Royal Marsden and beyond will benefit from increased access to genomic testing, which can help: - identify potential risk of cancer - diagnose the disease - and personalise treatments. By automating repetitive and time-consuming tasks, it will also give laboratory technologists and scientists more time for vital development work.

“New services like being able to image coronary stents and to see through coronary calcium better than ever before were very much part of the plan and thankfully have come to fruition for us. (…) And the good thing about Siemens (Healthineers) machines is, they always do exactly what it says on the box.” That's how Conor Murray, CEO & radiologist, explains the business benefits the team at ChestRad Perth, Australia, noticed following the installation of NAEOTOM Alpha. https://lnkd.in/eav7rkGt It’s time to continue the success story of photon-counting CT technology.

Today on National Burns Awareness Day, 16 October 2024, it's crucial to remember that burns can happen instantly. Preparation is key to reducing the impact of burns. Whether it's at home or work, having a plan in a time of panic can make all the difference. Did you Know? 1) Most burns occur at home, and often in the Kitchen. Having a first aid kit readily available is the first step to your preparation. 2) Cool the burn with cool running water for 20 minutes (non-potable water should be avoided for burn cooling), then apply Burnshield Hydrogel to keep the skin cool and protected from the elements that could cause infection. 3) Burnshield Hydrogel can be applied directly after a burn has occurred in a resource-limited setting. Burnshield hydrogel is 97% water which absorbs and dissipates the heat, providing fast-acting relief. Let's take steps today to ensure our families are safe. #BurnshieldZA #SteroplastHealthcare #NationalBurnsAwareness #BeBurnsAware #CoolTheBurn #SterileDressing #MetaCreativeLab
