Medical Laboratory

A medical laboratory is a facility where various diagnostic tests and analyses are conducted on clinical specimens such as blood, urine, tissue samples, and other bodily fluids. These tests play a crucial role in the diagnosis, monitoring, and treatment of diseases and health conditions. Medical laboratories employ highly trained professionals such as medical laboratory scientists/technologists, pathologists, and technicians who perform a wide range of tests using advanced instrumentation and methodologies.
The tests performed in a medical laboratory can include:
  • Hematology: Analysis of blood cells and related disorders.
  • Clinical Chemistry: Testing for substances like glucose, cholesterol, electrolytes, and enzymes in blood or urine.
  • Microbiology: Identification of microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites.
  • Immunology: Evaluation of the immune system, including antibody testing and allergy testing.
  • Molecular Diagnostics: Detection of genetic material (DNA/RNA) to diagnose genetic disorders, infections, and cancers.
  • Histology/Cytology: Examination of tissue samples for abnormalities or diseases, such as cancer.
  • Toxicology: Analysis of drugs and toxins in bodily fluids for medical or forensic purposes.
