CPT code for each analyte: 85025 CPT code for each analyte: 85027
Test Methodology: HemoScreen uses a patented technique called viscoelastic focusing, which causes the cells to perfectly align into a single plane. High resolution microscopic images are taken of the flowing cells. Each image is then analyzed using machine vision AI algorithms, and the various cell types are differentiated and counted. WBCs are stained prior to analysis to enable differentiation between their sub-types and abnormal cells. HGB is calculated based on the optical density measured on individual, intact cells.

HEMOSCREEN TEST KIT

CLIA Classification: Moderately complex
Analytes performed on this device CBC With Differential, CBC Without Differential
CPT Code associated with each analyte: 85025 (CBC With Differential), 85027 (CBC Without Differential)
Test methodology: HemoScreen’s disposable cartridge includes all necessary reagents, automatically preparing the sample and eliminating potential pre-analytical errors. The sample is precisely dosed based on capillary action and is automatically injected into the reagent chambers within the cartridge. Two 20 µL samples are mixed and incubated in parallel chambers. The samples undergo treatment and staining, and flow at different stages into a microfluidic measurement chamber for analysis and enumeration. The cartridge removes cross-contamination risk and makes sample preparation user independent.
Sample volume: CBC + 5-part Diff: 40 µL
Time to result: 5 minutes for CBC + 5-Part Diff. / 3 minutes for CBC only
Units in which the test is reported:
  • WBC: 10^3/µL    
  • RBC: 10^6/µL
  • HGB: g/dL

  • NEU#, LYM#, MON#, EOS#, BAS#: 10^3/µL    
  • NEU%, LYM%, MON%, EOS%, BAS%: %
MSDS's associated with the use of this product: This product consists of three mixtures of ingredients. Each mixture is contained in its own housing that are mounted on the cartridge. The ingredients in each housing (such as dyes, detergents, buffer solutions and preservatives) are in concentrations not associated with human or environmental toxicity. MSDS for HemoScreen CBC Cartridge available upon request.
