Haematology

  • All types of Routine and special blood tests are done by using fully automated cell counter with automated barcode identification system.

  • Gives results only in 55 seconds with 100% accuracy and highest degree of precision.

  • All slides are directly seen on microscope and reported by our Oncopathologist herself.

  • Bone Marrow Aspiration and Trephine Biopsy is done by the Oncopathologist.

Cytopathology

  • Fine needle Aspiration Cytology (FNAC) done and reported by Oncopathologist.

  • Cervical Pap test, sample collected by Oncopathologist herself (Not by any technician or OPD sister) as perfect sample collection is the most important step for proper reporting.

  • All samples are reported as per latest “The Bethesda System” guideline. So internationally challenged and accepted.

  • Body Fluid Cytology and cell block preparation are processed by highly qualified technician using latest technology in this pathology lab in Uttarpara.

Biochemistry and Hormone Assay

All types of Biochemical tests, Hormonal assay and Tumour markers are done by fully automated analyser using VIDAS by ELFA (Enzyme Linked Fluorescence Assay) technology. This technology is internationally accepted and challenged. Besides, we run Bio Rad Control of EQAS programme every month and the results are satisfactory.

  • No cross contamination.

  • Automated Barcode identification system

  • Values are accepted and appreciated worldwide.

Histopathology

  • Biopsy (HPE) grossing is done by Oncopathologist herself in our diagnostic centre in Hooghly and a complete, comprehensive report including staging and other prognostic features (when and where required) as per latest WHO classification are given by her in 6 to 10 working days.

  • Trucut biopsy (Core biopsy): is a simple OPD procedure done by using a Bard gun (2.2 cm) under local anaesthesia, by our Oncopathologist. Report is delivered within 6 to 8 working days.
