“TTS are a great company to work with, always pleasant and helpful, willing to solve requests quickly. Working with TTS has helped H&I Belfast to be the first laboratory in the UK, along with Bristol, to implement the DC:ERT function. This cuts out transcription errors, and makes life easier for out of hours laboratory staff. Once we finish assigning the HLA type, we just click on the Export button in SCORE, and the result is automatically updated in Manzen. There is a DC:ERT button in the HLA Typing Test Results page in Manzen that we click on, and there’s just a few options to check before submitting with another click of a button. It’s easy.
