“Fully Automated LC-MS – Theory becomes Reality”
The use of LC-MS in diagnostic pathology has been limited by the complexity of equipment, materials and skills required to establish a fully validated service. A review showed only 19% of respondents were running VitaminD using LC-MS. On the basis that this is the gold standard, a fully validated and simple-to-use mass spectrometer has been a long awaited development. This presentation shares the first practical experience of using the Thermo Scientific™ Cascadion™ SM Clinical Analyser, in a laboratory, where staff have no prior experience of using LC-MS technology.

Automated LC-MS/MS: A disruptive technology will improve the quality of care for our patients
The LC-MS/MS platform provides solutions to complex analytical problems for clinical routine laboratories. This development started decades ago and the technology has proven to deliver reliable results with unreached specificity in TDM, DoA testing, endocrine diagnostics and newborn screening. In this presentation the concept of a fully integrated and automated LC-MS/MS is described. Special focus is on features of the Thermo Scientific™ Cascadion™ SM Clinical Analyzer that can overcome the limitations of open systems.
