Abstract

Assessing test results development during assay analysis is shown and described. In one embodiment, an apparatus generates an assessment of diagnostic test development from an assay. The apparatus may include an optical detector aligned in an optical path with the assay. Further, the optical detector may perform continuous image detection of the assay to generate an assessment testing development. In some examples, the assessment is a graphical display of diagnostic development. In yet other embodiments, a method of assessing diagnostic test development may include signaling the optical detector to perform continuing image detection of the assay and generating an assessment of said diagnostic test development. The assessment may include graphing a reflectance detected on the assay on a display board.
