Beyond HbA1c: unlocking the power of AGEs in diabetes care
Advanced Glycation End products (AGEs) are harmful compounds that build up in tissue, causing stiffness, impaired organ function, and driving conditions such as type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Unlike traditional biomarkers, AGE levels offer powerful early insight — strongly predicting the risk of developing these conditions and their complications. With the non-invasive AGE Reader from Diagnoptics, clinicians can easily measure AGE levels in minutes, gaining a clearer picture of patient risk. This session will show how AGEs open the door to earlier intervention, better outcomes, longer health span — and reduced healthcare costs.
- By the end of this session, participants will be able to:
- 1. Understand what Advanced Glycation End products (AGEs) are and why they matter in diabetes care.
- 2. Explore the link between AGEs and chronic diseases such as type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease.
- 3. Discover how AGEs can be measured quickly and non-invasively in clinical practice.
- 4. Apply AGE insights to strengthen risk assessment and guide more effective patient interventions.
