LONDON, England, November 13 /PRNewswire/ -- The mission and goals of hospital laboratories are changing rapidly with greater emphasis on activities such as point-of-care testing and outreach testing, working in tandem with other automated systems in the hospital. Across Europe, almost half of the hospitals have a dedicated laboratory system. Vendors have therefore seen this as an opportunity to persuade hospitals of the benefits of an integrated hospital-wide system using the laboratory information system (LIS) as a selling tool.
