Non-invasive diagnostic tests for infections
Karius focuses on medical diagnostics for infectious diseases, offering the Karius Test, which detects over 1,000 pathogens from a single blood sample. This non-invasive test is quick and helps clinicians treat hospitalized patients by reducing the need for multiple invasive tests that can delay treatment. The Karius Test utilizes advanced genomics and artificial intelligence to identify microbial cell-free DNA (mcfDNA) in the bloodstream, providing insights into the pathogens responsible for infections. Karius sells these diagnostic tests to healthcare providers, aiming to offer a faster and less invasive alternative to traditional methods, ultimately saving lives and reducing healthcare costs. The company employs proprietary machine learning algorithms to analyze genomic data in real time, continuously updating its reference genome databases to enhance its diagnostic capabilities.
