It is built on globally harmonised, state-of-the-art histopathology practices and ICON’s proprietary host platform for image data called MIRA (Medical Image Review and Analysis).

Lab Services commences operations at new Beijing location
The move to Beijing represents the successful conclusion of a complex relocation project, which included operation from a temporary facility in Shanghai while the former lab location in Tianjin was decommissioned. During all this time, service to clients was maintained without interruption. While ICON Labs has had a presence in China since 2007, this is the first time that the lab will be co-located with other ICON services in Beijing.
The new 950 sqm facility will support global drug development and will also house ICON clinical research and other staff. Current testing services include hematology, chemistry, urinalysis, coagulation, immunology, HbA1c and DNA extraction. A range of specialty lab testing capabilities such as histopathology, PCR, slide imaging and ELISA will be installed by the end of 2021. BioA lab capacity is also planned for the future.
