The lab’s turnaround time is 24-48 hours from the time a sample arrives, Todos Medical said Aug. 26. The saliva test is intended for suspected cases of monkeypox without lesions.

For cases showing legions, Todos Medical said it is still recommended to test both saliva and lesions to determine whether lesions contain the virus and whether the saliva sample is representative of the systemic active infection.

At the Becker's 11th Annual IT + Revenue Cycle Conference: The Future of AI & Digital Health, taking place September 14–17 in Chicago, healthcare executives and digital leaders from across the country will come together to explore how AI, interoperability, cybersecurity, and revenue cycle innovation are transforming care delivery, strengthening financial performance, and driving the next era of digital health.
