Our Treatments
Biopsy Analysis
Biopsy Analysis
We examine tissue samples taken from your body to diagnose various conditions. This involves studying tissue to identify abnormalities indicative of cancer, infections, or inflammatory diseases.
Cytology
Cytology
In Cytology we conduct microscopic examination of cells from bodily fluids or tissues to detect abnormalities. The most well-known example is the Pap smear, which screens for cervical cancer. However, cytology also plays a vital role in diagnosing other conditions, such as thyroid disorders, lung cancer, and urinary tract infections.
Hematology
Hematology
Our hematology laboratory analyzes blood and bone marrow to diagnose disorders affecting these tissues. This includes conditions like anemia (low red blood cell count), leukemia (cancer of the blood-forming tissues), and clotting disorders. By examining blood cells and their components, we provide essential information for managing blood-related diseases and monitoring treatment effectiveness.
Clinical Chemistry
Clinical Chemistry
Clinical chemistry involves performing a wide range of tests on blood and other bodily fluids to measure levels of various substances. These tests help diagnose and monitor a variety of medical conditions, including diabetes, kidney disease, liver disease, thyroid disorders, and electrolyte imbalances. By analyzing these substances, we provide valuable information for physicians to make informed treatment decisions.
Microbiology
Microbiology
Microbiology focuses on the identification and study of microorganisms, such as bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites. Our laboratory plays a crucial role in diagnosing infectious diseases by isolating and identifying the causative agent. This information is essential for selecting appropriate antibiotics or antiviral medications to effectively treat infections.
Transfusion Medicine
Transfusion Medicine
Transfusion medicine ensures the safe and effective use of blood and blood products. Our laboratory performs blood typing, compatibility testing, and antibody screening to match donors and recipients. We also play a critical role in managing blood inventories and optimizing blood utilization within the healthcare system.
