Myriad Announces the Launch of a New Radiographic Progression Prognostic Tool, Adding to Clinical Value of Vectra - Seite 2

Three out of four rheumatologists have used Vectra and have ordered more than one million tests for their RA patients.  The American College of Rheumatology (ACR) includes Multi-Biomarker Disease Activity Score (Vectra) as a disease activity measure that meets minimum standards for regular use for patients with rheumatoid arthritis. Those recommendations were published in the journal Arthritis Care & Research.
