11th and 12th March 2021

2nd Annual MarketsandMarkets Infectious Disease Diagnostics and Point-Of-Care Testing Virtual Conference (Eastern Standard Time)

The Diagnostics sector has emerged as a prominent game changer in healthcare, because of many technological advancements taking place within the field. As diagnostics is a key for making the treatment decisions, it needs to be quicker, précised, and accurate.

Point-of-care testing (POCT) is a growing testing. Today, you may see POCT in a hospital with handheld gadgets or small testers in emergency department, extensive care setting, popular clinical wards, and imaging facilities. And market analyses that the world is moving from critical laboratory testing to testing for quick and accurate results at the patient's point of care.

In the era of improved diagnostics, our 2nd Annual Virtual Event on Infectious Disease Diagnostics and Point-Of-Care Testing will serve as a networking place for Diagnostics professional, Industrial specialists, and solution providers to address the rising innovation in its discipline and the way it can be used as disease prevention tool.
