Clinical Laboratory Services is updating their chemistry analyzers to the Siemens Atellica System. A full validation has been performed and all analytes have been fully tested. A few analytes demonstrate a slight difference in reference ranges.
Troponin analysis has a more significant change. We will now be performing a High-Sensitivity assay. Results will be reported in ng/mL (rather than ng/L).
