Medical pathology examines tissue and cell samples to establish a diagnosis and guide treatment, with an emphasis on fast and accurate reporting. The department at our partner hospital includes immunohistochemistry and cytopathology laboratories and works with the microbiology and genetics laboratories for advanced methods. MedLuxLife coordinates the practical steps, including the transfer of existing samples and the translation of reports.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
