March 10, 2025—ARUP Laboratories announced the expansion of its AI-augmented screening tool for the detection of human gastrointestinal parasites to include wet-mount slides. The tool uses scanned images to screen and eliminate negative specimens and aims to reduce ergonomic stressors on laboratory staff, decrease turnaround time, increase capacity, and improve patient care.
The parasitology AI-augmented screening tool will be implemented in ARUP’s parasitology laboratory early this year. ARUP developed the AI solution in partnership with Techcyte.
