Clinical Research: Patient - oriented research. Clinical research is a branch of healthcare science that determines the safety and effectiveness (efficacy) of medications, devices, diagnostic products and treatment regimens intended for human use. These may be used for prevention, treatment, diagnosis or for relieving symptoms of a disease.

Liquid chromatography triple quadrupole mass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS) is ideally suited for the direct and rapid analysis of prepared biological samples. While analysis times can be shortened...
Until recently most of the phenotypic information on congenital endocrine disorders have relied on biochemical testing of steroids, biogenic amines and peptides but is now...
FDA has generally not enforced applicable regulatory requirements on a group of IVD tests called Laboratory Developed Tests. This use of “enforcement discretion” has been un...
There is agreement among clinicians that laboratory analyses are indispensable for correct diagnosis of disease, therapy, and patient monitoring. It is evident that laboratory data should be...
Drugs of abuse toxicology testing by immunoassays is widely used clinically, but also known to be inadequate for many clinical indications. In this presentation, the speaker will outline diff...
Next-generation sequencing has emerged as a valuable tool for generating patient-specific genetic information for clinical diagnostics and optimal selection of targeted therapies. The heterog...
