Clinical Biochemistry

The Clinical Biochemistry Department provides comprehensive clinical laboratory services in the vast area of Clinical Chemistry. Diseases like diabetes, heart attacks, chronic kidney disease, fatty liver, can be diagnosed by the examination of body fluids including blood & urine. A range of advanced tests such as HbA1c quantification based on Nephelometry Principle and a provision of POCT etc., are carried out.

The team of professionals, including clinicians, laboratory technicians, technical assistants and phlebotomists, is capable of furnishing the medical and scientific expertise needed to deliver high precision results.

The highest Quality Control and Quality Assurance standards are strictly adhered to in the lab.

Clinical Pathology

The Clinical Pathology Department supports the diagnosis of disease, using laboratory testing of blood and other bodily fluids.

The department employs digitally equipped automated analyzer. A wide range of point-of-care equipment is also available, to get specimen testing straight to the Intensive Care Units and Operating Rooms.

The laboratory technicians and clinicians work in close coordination with the Clinical Biochemistry and Haematology Departments, to deliver high quality, timely and affordable services.

Haematology

The Haematology Department features state-of-the-art equipment, including automated cell counters & coagulometers. It provides a wide range of services for the diagnosis and treatment of blood disorders.

The laboratory, with a team of clinicians & technicians and strong automation, provides accurate, dependable results within a short period of time while maintaining a high degree of quality control.

Cytopathology

The Cytopathology section is well equipped. Both Exfoliative and Interventional Cytology (Fine Needle aspiration Cytology) are carried out with the help from Radiology dept, for imaging guidance (under Ultrasound and Computed Tomography) renders virtually all body sites accessible to the Fine Needle (for FNAC), thus allowing reliable tissue diagnoses at economical rates and minimal discomfort.

The Histopathology laboratory caters the need of all kinds of cases from Gynae, Urology, Gastro-intestinal, Cardiovascular, Orthopaedic and Respiratory Medicine and highly specialized areas are such as Neuropathology, Oncology and pathology departments. Neurosurgical cases are done routinely. Frozen section studies is being started soon. Outside cases in the form of specimens for review slides are also undertaken.
In order to achieve the goal of early and reliable reporting, the laboratory is equipped with high quality precision equipments including the Leica-Automated tissue processor, Leica- Rotary microtome, embedding station and cryostat Microtome.

Molecular Biology

Gene-Xpert, a CBNAAT (catridge based nucleic acid amplification test) is a widely accepted diagnostic test for Tuberculosis. This test is a rapid diagnostic test for Tuberculosis detection as well as Rifampicin resistance in direct smear negative cases. Due to of non availability and lack of cost effectiveness it is still not common in developing countries like India. Bronchial washings, sputum, pleural samples(pleural fluid, pleural biopsies), tissue biopsy and other samples from patients of suspected Tuberculosis were sent for direct smear/culture for AFB as well as Gene-Xpert.
