The first Sysmex Diagnostic Forum is the perfect dialogue platform for you to discuss central diagnostic questions regarding infection analysis, malignancies and anaemia. As the market leader in the area of haematology, Sysmex strives for a successful cooperation with you to promote progress in healthcare.

Sysmex can offer innovations in many different areas: We continuously advance our expertise in clinical flow cytometry, provide more clinical benefit and workflow progress than ever before with new haematological applications and have launched a unique range of equipment for urinalysis.
