“Researchers at the University of Washington have developed smartphone-based technology that can allow someone to perform a blood clotting test at home. The technology is low-cost and easy to use. The test involves placing a drop of blood into a plastic attachment that can be viewed by a smartphone camera. The smartphone then vibrates the blood, and the camera can detect when the blood has clotted. The approach provides an inexpensive and convenient blood testing option for patients who are taking anti-coagulants.” MORE WITH VIDEO
