CLINICAL PATHOLOGY

A Clinical Pathology Laboratory is a specialized medical facility that conducts laboratory tests on blood, urine, and other body fluids to aid in the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of diseases. These tests provide crucial insights into a patient’s overall health and help healthcare professionals make informed decisions.

Key Areas of Clinical Pathology:

✔ Hematology – Blood analysis to detect conditions like anemia, infections, and clotting disorders.
✔ Biochemistry – Testing metabolic functions, organ health, and electrolyte balance.
✔ Microbiology – Identifying bacterial, viral, fungal, and parasitic infections.
✔ Immunology & Serology – Evaluating immune responses and detecting autoimmune disorders.
✔ Cytology – Examining cells for cancer screening and other abnormalities.
