Portable Device to Quantify Liver Steatosis Granted

Our ideas on a portable device we are developing to provide rapid reads of donor liver biopsies.

Researchers Natasha Abadilla, Simon Chen, Marc Melcher, Raja Narayan, and Linfeng Yang worked to create this device that could be used as a tool in quantifying liver steatosis in biopsy slides. It would provide rapid assessment of fat levels without the need for a pathologist.
