Modular assay reader device

The invention relates to a modular assay reader device. Certain aspects relate to systems and techniques of use for modular lateral flow assay reader devices capable of receiving a plurality of different modules with barcode scan input devices and optional network connectivity capabilities. The barcode scanning module can provide a simple input method that reduces errors compared to manual data input. A network connection module enables transmission of test results over a public network for standardizing, tracking and electronically connecting test results from assay reader devices located throughout the network. Such devices can programmatically achieve a simplified workflow in which pressing a single button prepares the device for imaging, analysis, and data storage/transfer, and in some embodiments, configures the device to operate in one of a plurality of device operating modes. 本发明的名称是模块化测定读取器装置。某些方面涉及用于模块化侧向流测定读取器装置的系统和使用技术，其能够接收具有条形码扫描输入装置和任选的网络连接能力的多个不同模块。条形码扫描模块能够提供一种简单的输入方法，其与手动数据输入相比减少错误。网络连接模块能够通过
