Abstract:
Molecular diagnosis has become an important part in the field of precision medicine. With the continuous advancement of molecular diagnostic technologies, their significance in the field of precision medicine has grown, making molecular detection technologies and solutions increasingly important. There are still certain bottlenecks in the current molecular diagnostic approaches, that is, the level of automation in the detection process is insufficient to meet the growing efficiency needs for medical personnel. Although, molecular diagnostic automation has emerged, the existing automation technologies rely on automated equipment to assist laboratory personnel, which is not considered as full automation. In this study, we conducted an in-depth investigation and proposed two distinct solutions to address the current challenges: (1) point-of-care-testing (POCT)-based molecular diagnostic automation solution; (2) pipeline-based molecular diagnostic automation solution. We hope to provide better strategies to improve clinical laboratory testing capabilities and accuracy, and to guide future development of technology in the molecular diagnostic automation industry.
