LABORATORY SCIENCES
Laboratory sciences, also known as laboratory medicine or clinical laboratory sciences, encompass a wide range of disciplines and activities related to the analysis of biological samples and specimens in a laboratory setting. One of the primary roles of laboratory sciences is clinical diagnostics. This involves the analysis of patient samples such as blood, urine, tissue, and other bodily fluids to identify the presence of pathogens (e.g., bacteria, viruses), abnormal cells, biochemical markers, and other indicators of disease. Common tests include blood chemistry, microbiology cultures, hematology, and immunology assays.
Key aspects of our Department of Laboratory Sciences:
Team of Professionals: Laboratory sciences are carried out by a team of skilled professionals, including Pathologists, Microbiologists, Biochemists and medical laboratory technicians. These professionals are responsible for performing a variety of tests and analyses on patient samples to help in disease diagnosis, monitoring, and research.
