Join ARUP Laboratories at the 2026 American Academy of Neurology (AAN) Annual Meeting, April 18-22, in Chicago. The AAN Annual Meeting brings together clinicians, researchers, and healthcare leaders to explore advancements shaping the future of neurologic care.
At ARUP's booth (#4313), attendees can connect with our experts to learn about our comprehensive neurology testing offerings and how intentional laboratory testing can support clinically meaningful insights across a range of neurologic conditions. We look forward to engaging in conversations with the neurology community and sharing how clinicians can partner with ARUP to navigate complex diagnostic challenges.
Researchers validated particle-based multianalyte technology (PMAT) using samples collected at ARUP to evaluate the recently developed PMAT assay for the detection of myositis-specific antibodies in comparison to line immunoblot assays, multiplex bead assays, and immunoprecipitation.
