Service Updates

This page provides official service updates from the Cambridge Haematopathology and Oncology Diagnostic Service, including equipment and accreditation notices.

3 October 2025

As part of the ongoing development of the HODS service, we are upgrading our current BD Canto Flow Cytometer to the BD Lyric.

The implementation will continue until early 2026, with assays gradually moving across to the new platform.

We are working closely with our accrediting body, UKAS, to ensure that our schedule of accreditation is updated to reflect these changes.

If you have any questions about the impact of this change on specific tests during this period, please contact HODS.
