August 2025—EntroGen announced that its CRCdx RAS mutation detection kit has received national coverage from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. CRCdx is an FDA-approved, real-time PCR-based companion diagnostic for use in identifying patients eligible for treatment with Vectibix (panitumumab), based on the absence of KRAS and NRAS mutations.
August 2025—Revvity announced the launch of its IDS i20 analytical random access platform from Euroimmun, enabling full automation of chemiluminescence immunoassays. The CE-marked and FDA-listed IDS i20 allows users to simultaneously run 20 analytes from six diagnostic specialties on a single device. The specialties include endocrinology, allergy, autoimmune and infectious disease testing, testing for Alzheimer’s disease, and therapeutic drug monitoring. The instrument can process up to 140 tests per hour and features continuous loading of samples and reagents as well as integrated cooling of ready-to-use reagent cartridges. It is for in vitro diagnostic use.
July 2025—StaffReady has released a mobile app for its StaffReady Scheduling. The app is available on Apple and Android devices and offers StaffReady’s Calendar feature for users to easily view a schedule, request PTO, or make detailed shift requests, such as giveaways, trades, or bids.

July 2025—Diasorin has received 510(k) clearance from the FDA for its Liaison Plex Gram-positive blood culture assay. The assay detects 17 targets (13 Gram-positive bacteria and four relevant resistance gene targets) in less than two hours and features Diasorin’s proprietary NanoGrid technology, which allows the detection of nucleic acids without the need for conventional amplification reactions.
July 2025—Ibex Medical Analytics reports that a study conducted at Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center confirms that Ibex Breast, an AI-powered diagnostic support solution, significantly improves accuracy and efficiency in evaluating breast pathology cases (Tahir M, et al. Clin Breast Cancer. Published online March 26, 2025). The study analyzed 104 real-world breast biopsies, including invasive and microinvasive carcinomas, ductal carcinoma in situ, atypical lobular hyperplasia, and other benign lesions. Three breast pathologists independently reviewed each case digitally, with and without the support of Ibex Breast. Results demonstrated that when using AI, diagnostic accuracy improved from 97.1 percent to 100 percent, with previously missed precancerous lesions, such as lobular neoplasia and microcalcifications, correctly identified.
July 2025—Sysmex America has received FDA clearance for its CN-6000 automated blood coagulation analyzer. The clearance also covers reagent products for prothrombin time seconds and PT INR (Dade Innovin), activated partial thromboplastin time (Dade Actin FSL), fibrinogen (Dade thrombin reagent), antithrombin (Innovance antithrombin), and D-dimer (Innovance D-dimer). Sysmex has also received Health Canada license for the CN-6000 as well as its CN-3000 automated blood coagulation analyzer.
