The studies
behind the laser.
Needle-free laser lancing is an unusual category. Below is the published evidence we share with NHS Trusts, GP surgeries and POCT procurement teams evaluating the HandyRay range — the manufacturer clinical study summary plus three peer-reviewed comparison studies against the conventional lancet.
