The National Institutes of Health selected Pixcell Medical Ltd.’s Hemoscreen hematology analyzer as part of the six-year Risk Underlying Rural Areas Longitudinal (RURAL) research study, aiming to gain insight into the specific health-related concerns of the rural southeastern United States' population. The RURAL study is funded by the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute and aims to understand health concerns specific to rural communities in the South, particularly related to increased rates of heart, lung, blood and sleep disorders.

Clinics, urgent care centers, busy hospitals, and patients can count on Hemoscreen, a miniaturized point-of-care hematology analyzer made by Pixcell Medical Technologies Ltd., to provide accurate complete blood count (CBC) results, according to a study published in the Journal of Applied Laboratory Medicine. The study found the small unit better differentiates between cells and adapts to inference than conventional laboratory blood analysis.

Sight Diagnostics Ltd. raised $71 million in series D financing to expand its commercial operations and increase research and development efforts into disease detection from its fingerprick blood analyzer Sight OLO.
