DIANON Systems aids physicians from all over the United States diagnose and treat cancer and genetic diseases. The company provides pathology services. Physicians send DIANON thousands of tissue and body fluid samples and a team of laboratory professionals, including pathologists, geneticists and technologists analyze each sample using an array of sophisticated technologies. The process results in a diagnostic consultation report that the physician uses as a basis for treatment. The company s professional staff is supported by a state-of-the-art, proprietary information system designed, built and continuously improved by a group of programmers and analysts. More than 5000 physicians use the services and thousands of patients have benefited from the company s CarePath Reporting program. Through this program, health plans are developing more effective programs for disease management. DIANON recently expanded its operations with the acquisition of a pathology laboratory in Tampa, Fla.
