Innovations in Testing for the Detection of Lyme Disease
Timely Response in Testing for Lyme Disease
Each year, some 300,000 people in the United States contract Lyme disease, and according to the CDC, that number is on the rise.

However, there are still limitations with the current testing modalities that can often take up the valuable time needed for prompt treatment to occur.
Ereka Vetrini and her guest, Raymond Dattwyler, M.D., discuss Lyme disease and a solution for a timelier diagnosis.

When used in combination, these assays help clinical laboratorians simplify testing processes while reducing turnaround time, thereby helping patients get their results faster.
