Abstract | ||||
Background: Technological advancement in the field of clinical laboratory science has improved the diagnostic value of tests and their throughput. New methodologies include, the Next-generation sequencing (NGS), CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing, artificial intelligence (AI) and the point of care testing (POCT). Aim: This study seeks to explore the evolution of clinical laboratory science, enhanced diagnostics and personalization through the use of new technologies. Methods: The subsequent discussion of recent advancements in diagnosis field was based on the analysis of the articles and clinical reports on NGS, CRISPR-Cas9, AI, POCT. Results: Computational platforms including NGS/CRISPR-Cas9 has advanced genetic diagnostics and AI has advanced the data analysis while point of care technologies [POCT devices have made the diagnosis faster at the site of testing. Conclusion: New advancements are changing the ways clinical laboratories work, improving the diagnosis and making efficient the treatment. All these are potential enhancements that are in line to help enhance healthcare. | ||||
