Saliclick is a smart lip holder to support minor salivary gland biopsy when a Sjögren syndrome is suspected or an other pathology affecting the salivary glands.
This device allows the doctor to do the biopsy in a much safer way, because it holds the lip firmly. The doctor doesn’t need any assistance and the biopsy will take less time.
In a prospective clinical study of 123 patients at a leading US Hospital system using the MSIS-13 criteria as comparator, the Lyfstone Calprotectin test showed excellent sensitivity (98.1%) and specificity (95.7%). The calprotectin test outperformed blood-based PJI diagnostic tests such as CRP and ESR, confirming its diagnostic utility.
