Anatomic\u00a0Pathology Division provides diagnostic services in histopathology and cytopathology to UMMC.<\/p>\n

Types of services provided by Histopathology Lab are\u00a0histopathology\u00a0routine services based on H+E colouring, special colouring,\u00a0immunohistochemistry, and in-situ hybridization.\u00a0Histopathology Lab also provides prompt\u00a0diagnostic services\u00a0via\u00a0intraoperative frozen section diagnosis. Clinical and specialist consultant in this division involve in consultation services for hospitals under the Ministry of Heallth and private sectors in kidney biopsy, cardiac transplant, muscles, neurologic and etc.<\/p>\n

Gynaecology and non-gynaecology smear test together with Fine Needle Aspiration\u00a0are among the services provided by Cytopathology Lab. Pathology Specialists conduct\u00a0Fine Needle Aspiration\u00a0for UMMC patients of\u00a0Fine Needle Aspiration\u00a0Clinic held twice a week.<\/p>\n

Medical Laboratory Division<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Medical Laboratory Division\u00a0is responsible in diagnostic services for patients and doctors, conducting researches for techniques in diagnostic tests, disseminating information on services offered to clients of the department. The division also provides continuous advisory and technical training for UMMC student and staff.<\/p>\n

The division also provides diagnostic services for Chemical Pathology (clinical chemistry, endocrine, immunology, fluid and excretion,\u00a0therapeutic drug monitoring, specialised chemistry), Haemathology (routine haemathology, specialised haemathology, coagulation, bone marrow test),\u00a0Inborn Errors of Metabolism, cytogenetic, molecular genetic, immunogenetic and transplantation.<\/p>\n

INTRODUCTION<\/u><\/strong><\/u><\/p>\n

This directory provides details of the extensive range of diagnostic tests offered by the various laboratories in the Division of Laboratory Medicine. If a required test is not currently offered in-house, please contact the appropriate laboratory for further information.<\/p>\n

Diagnostic laboratory tests play an increasingly crucial role in patient management. The main aim of the laboratories is to process and test clinical specimens from patients, and to offer high quality service in doing so. The patient is the primary concern of the laboratories. Therefore, to achieve quality results and optimal use of the services, a number of requirements are important and should be adhered to.<\/p>\n

Firstly, appropriate samples should be collected using the correct containers, and transported to the laboratory under optimal conditions. This information can be found in the following pages. Secondly, each sample must be accompanied by a signed request form containing all the necessary information. In particular, relevant clinical details should be provided, to assist laboratories in performing the most appropriate tests and interpreting the results. Finally, users are encouraged to talk to the Head and consultants of the laboratories, whether to discuss tests or results, to get advice or to offer feedback. A close working relationship between the users and the laboratory will ultimately benefit the patients.<\/p>\n
