CUBE 2019 symposium co-creates academic ecosystem to improve diagnostic prowess for empowering modern medicine

Following the phenomenal success of CUBE 2018 in Mumbai, the next generation CUBE 2019 hosted in Mumbai got an overwhelming response as the event was value added with more scientific content, presentations, case studies, discussion and a much grander venue.

Aimed at revisiting the fascinating world of virtual microscopy and looking beyond just numbers in a Complete Blood Count (CBC), CUBE 2019 haematology symposium was organized by Mindray in collaboration with BLK Hospital, New Delhi in Mumbai between 20th and 21st April, 2019.

Cytomorphometry Unveiling Blood Evaluation (CUBE) focused on relevant areas like automated red cell morphology, recent advances in automated leukocyte morphology, platelet cytometry –  the old and the new, parasite identification and cellular interferences, virtual microscopy and digital imaging, counting beyond numbers, accreditation specific criteria (NABL 112) and haematology, middleware development and optimization of haematology automation and beyond.

Over 200 delegates across India participated in this symposium. Maharashtra Medical Council (MMC) granted 3 continuing medical education (CME) credit points for delegates attending CUBE 2019.

CUBE 2019 Event went live for all audience on Mindray's social media platforms like YouTube, Facebook and Twitter. We had more than 2000 visitors using this live feed feature to get latest updates in the field of hematology via CUBE. Over 40 scientific sessions and case study topics were discussed in this two- day event.

The extent and level of support that the CUBE 2019 received was unprecedented and it demonstrated the increasing understanding and importance in taking forward this theme.

Mindray extended deepest thanks to all the participants that have wholeheartedly participated in the sessions, panel discussions and provided technical support on various aspects of the conference. The event well received India’s leading diagnostics dignitaries and very well renowned practitioners who shared their invaluable experience and knowledge, and engaged in challenging discussions.

Event acted as a catalyst for setting the diagnostics health agenda in the country and provided an excellent forum for formal and informal discussion besides networking with industry leaders.

Mindray has carved a niche for itself in terms of latest innovations in all key business lines, namely patient monitoring and life support, in vitro diagnostics and medical imaging system. While improving the quality of care, the company helps in reducing its cost, making it more accessible to a larger part of people with its products and services in healthcare facilities across over 190 countries and regions.

The event covered relevant topics like Cell Counters and MDS, PLT's in Cardio Vascular Diseases,  Thrombocytopenia in PICU, Evaluation of platelet parameters in Sepsis, Platelet recovery in Dengue Fever & Image Morphometry - A Distinctive Approach, Significance of NLR & PLR in BMT cases, Digital Morphology, Automated Slide making and Integration Advantages, standardization of work-flow along with quality and screening algorithm for WBC pathologies using Middle link software among others.
