The Dimension Xpand Plus Integrated Chemistry System

Dimension Xpand Plus Integrated Chemistry System

The Dimension® Xpand® Plus Integrated Chemistry System combines chemistry, STAT and specialty testing on a single, compact, easy-to-use system.

  • Full-range integrated capability in a small footprint
  • True integration of chemistry and immunoassay for improved workflow efficiency
  • Easy-to-use Dimension platform provides the confidence that every trained operator can run any test, any time
  • Full disease-state profiling on a single analyzer
  • The most commonly ordered panels from a single sample

Features & Benefits

Dimension Xpand Plus Integrated Chemistry System - Features &amp; Benefits<br />

Full Range Integrated Capability for maximum efficiency in a compact space

"The Siemens ISD assays on the Dimension® Systems provide a number of advantages, including decreased turnaround time—instead of batching samples, which can take two or three hours to perform, we can run samples
(in random access) in about 30 minutes."
