Laboratory Services

The Department Laboratory is well equipped with modern Equipment’s which includes:

  1. Fully automated wet chemistry analyzer – HUMASTAR 100.
  2. Hematology analyzer – HUMACOUNT 30TS
  3. Fully automated Electrolyte analyzer – HUMALYTE PLUS 3
    This has enabled to carryout Different Diagnostic Tests.
