Description

A genomic test for detecting microbial cell-free DNA to identify pathogens causing infections.

Summary

Karius Test leverages clinical metagenomics to detect microbial cell-free DNA (mcfDNA) from a wide array of pathogens circulating in the body. This technology, combined with advanced machine learning algorithms, analyzes complex genomic data to provide unique insights into infectious diseases. It offers a non-invasive, comprehensive solution for identifying infections, especially useful for immunocompromised patients and challenging diagnostic cases.

Use Cases

• Diagnosing infectious diseases in immunocompromised patients through a non-invasive test.
• Identifying a broad spectrum of pathogens in patients with unexplained infections.
