ADLM 2026
Clinical Lab Expo
July 26–30, Anaheim Convention Center
Forward thinking. Far reaching.
Diagnostics is moving faster, reaching further, and growing more complex by the day. With growth comes pressure on labs to maintain standards, sustain oversight, and ensure consistent clinical decision‑making as care expands beyond the core lab.
The future of diagnostics won’t be defined by stretching today’s model to meet tomorrow’s demands. It requires partners who offer fresh thinking and forward focused technologies, so labs can confidently grow their business and expand access to care.

Bring earlier risk clarity to clinicians, simplify operations in the lab, and deliver consistent, reliable results wherever care happens.
Advancing Clinical Insight, Efficiency, and Access
Clinical excellence starts with more forward-looking insight. With advanced biomarkers and expanding prognostic capabilities, laboratories can help clinicians detect risk earlier, better understand disease progression, and guide care with greater confidence across complex conditions.
- Earlier, more holistic assessment of cardiometabolic health
- Prognostic insight that helps flag progression risk earlier (e.g., liver and cardiovascular)
- Blood-based biomarkers supporting brain health research and clinical exploration
- Longitudinal monitoring for chronic disease and plasma cell disorders
- Therapy management support through drug monitoring solutions
- Component-level allergy insight from a single platform
Growing complexity demands an integrated, connected approach. Streamlined workflows and connected systems reduce manual steps and variability—helping labs scale volume and complexity with consistency, so teams can focus on higher-value work.
- On-platform test consolidation to reduce send-outs and handoffs
- High-volume consistency to support dependable throughput in demanding areas
- Flexible sampling to support diverse volumes and care settings
- Network‑wide visibility enabled by POC Informatics
- Smaller instrument footprints to maximize lab space
As care extends beyond the central lab, consistent, high-quality diagnostics must extend with it. Flexible sampling and connected informatics help bring testing closer to patients while supporting reliable, standardized results across settings—so labs can support decentralized care and expand reach.
- Testing closer to patients through POC and distributed lab networks
- Standardized workflows and traceability through end-to-end informatics
- More testing kept in‑house to support faster decisions and reduce external dependencies
- Flexible sampling that supports broader patient access across settings
