DEVICE FOR READING IVD ASSAY

Japanese Patent JP2022000633

A

To provide a system for reading diagnostic assays.SOLUTION: A system 100 for reading fluorescent-labeled diagnostic assays for in-vitro diagnostic applications comprises: a receiving member 112 adapted to receive a fluorescent-labeled diagnostic assay cartridge; at least one excitation module 102, 103 configured to illuminate the diagnostic assay; a camera module 104 for capturing an image of the illuminated diagnostic assay placed in the receiving member; a processor for receiving the captured image from the camera module and determining whether or not a target analyte was present in the captured diagnostic assay; and memory storing firmware including a brightness compensation module configured to adjust the intensity of an image of a diagnostic cartridge captured by the camera module, in order to emulate a uniform field of illumination over the diagnostic cartridge on the basis of an illumination compensation look-up table.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1
