Lupus

The Lupus Foundation of America estimates that at least five million people worldwide have a form of lupus. Yet, the most widely used laboratory tests for patients with this complex condition were developed more than 60 years ago, and physicians need modern, evidence-based tools to provide high-quality care for their patients. That is why Mayo Clinic Laboratories and Progentec Diagnostics joined forces to provide solutions that transform that experience.
