Department of Laboratory Medicine
Spread Aprox. 10,250 square feet ably supported by all latest generation machines providing accurate, reliable and reproducible reports - helping Oncologist to make clear judgements regarding patient management.
Cytology
The cytology section helps in early diagnosis of tumors with CT and USG guided FNAC alongwith facility of ROSE to evaluate adequacy of aspirates. Fluid cytology ( Thermo Fischer Cytospin 4 ), scrape cytology, imprint and crush cytology are additional modalities available.
Histopathology
The Histopathology section handles all surgical pathology specimens, with excellent grossing support , tissue processing ( Leica Automated tissue processor, embedder, microtome, Automated Stainer ) and facilities for immunohistochemistry to further refine the diagnosis of different tumors.
Frozen Section
A Frozen section facility with Leica Cryostat ( CM 1860 UV )machine is located near the Operation Theatres to provide facility of rapid intraoperative diagnosis, helping the surgeons make critical ‘on-table’ decision making.
Immuno-Histo-Chemistry
This test helps to classify different cancers accurately, thus helping the patient get precise treatment. The Test can be done on the Fluid sample or Tissue sample taken for biopsy. Test is done by fully automated, state of the Art Roche Ventana System.
Hematology
The Hematology section hosts Siemens Advia 2120i cell counter, Beckman Coulter Navios Ex Flow cytometer, Sysmex 600 series automated Coagulometer and Sebia Hydrasys electrophoresis system for comprehensive blood analysis.
Flow Cytometry
This test is done on blood or Bone marrow samples of patients suspected of Blood Cancer- Leukemia. Highly accurate , 10 color Flow cytometry equipment by Beckman Coulter.
Microbiology
The microbiology section takes care of preventing and managing various infections ( Laminar Air Flow (THERMO) 1300 Series A2, BIOMERIEUX VITEK-2 COMPACT 30, BIOMERIEUX BACT/ALERT 3D ) to which the immunocompromised cancer patients are especially vulnerable.
Biochemistry
The biochemistry section is equipped with latest state of the art automated machines – Siemens Dimension EXL 200, Siemens Advia Centaur XPT Immunoassay system and Biomerieux Vidas PC analyser to measure different parameters in blood and other body fluids.
