The CellaVision DC-1 is an automated device that uses artificial intelligence to locate and preclassify white blood cells and characterize red blood cells on peripheral blood smears. It captures microscope images, presents them for operator review, and assists in differential blood cell counting, helping clinical laboratories perform in-vitro hematology analysis more efficiently and accurately.
CellaVision DC-1 is an automated cell-locating device intended for in-vitro diagnostic use in clinical laboratories, used for differential count of white blood cells, red blood cell morphology characterization, and platelet estimation.
The device consists of a motorized microscope with LED illumination, a digital color camera, XY stage, an integrated computer running CellaVision DM Software using convolutional neural networks for AI-based preclassification and precharacterization of blood cells from stained peripheral blood smears.
Performance testing included clinical studies comparing the DC-1 to the predicate DM1200 device across multiple labs, demonstrating equivalence in white blood cell differential counts, red blood cell morphology characterization, and platelet estimates. Software verification, electromagnetic compatibility, repeatability, reproducibility, and clinical accuracy studies showed the device is safe and effective.
