Apollo Diagnostics, a part of the Apollo Hospitals Group, has unveiled its Digi-Smart Central Reference Lab (CRL), a fully automated facility designed to transform diagnostic services through speed, precision, and technology-driven processes.
Faster, Error-Free Diagnostics for Better Patient Care
The newly launched CRL dramatically reduces diagnostic turnaround times while ensuring error-free operations, significantly enhancing patient care. According to a release from the group, this initiative leverages cutting-edge automation to deliver up to a 60% reduction in laboratory sample Turnaround Time (TAT).
45,000 Sq. Ft. State-of-the-Art Facility
Spanning 45,000 square feet, the laboratory integrates five key diagnostic disciplines—Clinical Chemistry, Immunoassay, Serology, Haematology, and Hemostasis—into a single, unified, and digitally monitored system. This centralized setup enables seamless data flow and boosts operational efficiency.
Powered by AI, Robotics, and Machine Learning
As reported by theprint, the Digi-Smart Lab operates with advanced automation. It is powered by robotics, high-definition cameras, machine learning algorithms, and customized software. These technologies work together to optimize processes, minimize human error, and significantly enhance diagnostic accuracy and clinical outcomes.
A New Benchmark in Laboratory Medicine
Dr. Prathap C. Reddy, Founder and Chairman of Apollo Hospitals, described the facility as a breakthrough in diagnostic science. “Our Digi-Smart Lab represents a paradigm shift in diagnostic efficiency and accuracy,” he said, highlighting its potential to redefine modern laboratory medicine.
Pioneering the Future of Healthcare Diagnostics
With this innovative facility, Apollo Diagnostics reaffirms its commitment to technological advancement and patient-centered care. The Digi-Smart CRL is set to reshape diagnostic services across India by merging automation with digital intelligence.
