Insights

This partnership expansion marks a significant leap in bone marrow aspirate (BMA) analysis. The integration of Scopio's Full-Field Bone Marrow Aspirate™ (FF-BMA) Application with Beckman Coulter's global distribution network could revolutionize hematology diagnostics. The AI-powered decision support system and high-resolution imaging offer potential for improved accuracy and reduced turnaround times.

The ability to review bone marrow smears remotely is a game-changer, potentially enhancing collaboration and facilitating second opinions. This could lead to better patient outcomes and more efficient use of specialist resources. However, it's important to monitor the system's performance against traditional methods to ensure diagnostic accuracy is maintained or improved.

The FF-BMA Application represents a significant technological advancement in hematology diagnostics. By combining high-resolution Full-Field imaging with AI-powered decision support, it addresses key challenges in traditional BMA analysis. The digital workflow integration with Scopio's X100 and X100HT scanners streamlines the process, potentially reducing human error and increasing efficiency.

The remote review capability via secure hospital networks is particularly noteworthy, as it aligns with the growing trend of telemedicine and remote diagnostics. This could lead to more efficient resource allocation and faster diagnoses, especially in areas with access to specialists. However, the success of this technology will depend on robust cybersecurity measures and seamless integration with existing hospital systems.

This partnership expansion signals strong market potential for digital cell morphology solutions. Beckman Coulter's decision to include Scopio's FF-BMA Application in its global distribution agreement indicates confidence in the technology's commercial viability. The move could significantly expand Scopio's market reach and accelerate adoption of digital hematology solutions worldwide.

For Beckman Coulter, this addition enhances its hematology portfolio, potentially strengthening its competitive position in the clinical diagnostics market. The partnership's focus on workflow benefits and remote viewing capabilities aligns well with current market trends towards digitalization and efficiency in healthcare. However, the success will depend on factors such as pricing strategy, training support and the ability to demonstrate clear ROI for laboratories adopting this technology.

BREA, Calif. and TEL AVIV, Israel, Sept. 17, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Beckman Coulter, a clinical diagnostics leader, and Scopio Labs, a medtech company that develops digital cell morphology workflow solutions, today jointly announced expansion of its long-term partnership to include a global distribution agreement of Scopio's Full-Field Bone Marrow Aspirate™ (FF-BMA) Application. Scopio's X100 / X100HT with FF-BMA Application are CE-Marked.

Bone marrow aspirate analysis is a vital procedure providing essential information for the assessment of various hematologic diseases.i By aspirating a small sample of the liquid portion of bone marrow, clinicians can examine the cellular composition, as well as the morphology and maturity of the blood cells morphology. However, traditional BMA analysis uses manual, labor-intensive, time-consuming methods that are heavily reliant on highly skilled hematopathologists to ensure accuracy.

Scopio's FF-BMA Application transforms BMA analysis by combining high-resolution Full-Field imaging with a robust AI-powered decision support system into a fully digital workflow seamlessly integrated with Scopio's X100 and X100HT scanners. It also enables hematopathologists to review bone marrow smears remotely (via a secure hospital network), potentially reducing turnaround time, fostering collaboration, facilitating second opinions, and bolstering diagnostic confidence.

"In today's lab, there is limited technology available to assist in the analysis of bone marrow aspirate," said Chris Hagen, Senior Vice President and General Manager, Core Lab Specialty Products for Beckman Coulter Diagnostics. "With Scopio's technology, lab scientists can assess hundreds of cells to evaluate morphological features with the support of artificial intelligence using the world's first BMA digital imaging and analysis solutions.  Reviewers can observe representative cell distribution across the sample at rates far exceeding that of reviews done by manual microscopes. We are thrilled to expand our partnership with Scopio and continue to bring full-field, AI-powered, digital imaging innovations to clinical labs worldwide."

"We are excited to extend our global partnership agreement with Beckman Coulter, which exemplifies our shared mission to advance the digital transformation of clinical laboratories around the world," said Itai Hayut, CEO and Co-Founder of Scopio Labs. "The addition of our first-of-its-kind digital bone marrow application into Beckman Coulter's hematology offering, signifies a strong endorsement of the successful adoption of Scopio's Full-Field digital cell morphology platform in the market to date. We look forward to continuing our partnership as Scopio brings new products to the market to fulfill the potential of hematology diagnostics in this new digital era."

Since 2022, Beckman Coulter and Scopio have been working together to accelerate adoption of the next generation of digital cell morphology. Scopio's X100 and X100HT digital cell morphology platforms employ full-field imaging and AI decision support eliminating the need for manual microscopy, while providing laboratory scientists and physicians true workflow benefits with simple to use remote viewing through a secured network.

In 2023, Beckman Coulter Diagnostics announced a new end-to-end automated hematology solution by connecting its DxH 900 Workcell and DxH Slidemaker Stainer II with the Scopio X100HT high-throughput digital cell morphology platform, complete with digitalized, AI-assisted peripheral blood smear analysis.
