The FDA cleared a CellaVision test that provides differential counts of white blood cells, characterization of red blood cell morphology, and platelet estimations.

The FDA granted clearance to consumer genetic testing company Ancestry.com for the over-the-counter use of a health risk test for hereditary thrombophilia.

The RT-PCR test runs on the Cobas 6800/8800 Systems and had previously received breakthrough device designation from the FDA.
