Respiratory/Sore Throat (R/ST) Panel
The new SPOTFIRE R/ST Panel offers the flexibility to choose either respiratory or sore throat testing based on the patient's signs and symptoms, delivering comprehensive results in about 15 minutes.

Several respiratory pathogens can cause nearly indistinguishable symptoms, making respiratory and sore throat infections, including pharyngitis, difficult to diagnose based on symptoms alone.
