Capturing Manual Tests in RALS!

More and more RALS users are asking about entering manual and lateral flow tests into RALS - and you can with our RALS Manual Test Entry (MTE) module. This means more tests done at the point of care can be electronically captured and stored in the RALS database for viewing and reporting, and can also be uploaded to the hospital LIS. Join us as we take a deeper dive into RALS Manual Test Entry, and much, much more.
