Pathology Lab
Pathology Lab
As Lucknow First Private Laboratory powered by VITROS® Automation Solution. We at SIDC focus our highest attention to the importance of precision, speed, and accuracy in laboratory operations. Lab Automation combined with bi-direction integration, bar-coding & automated analyzers ensures minimal error and accuracy in testing. This shift has brought in process improvement, quality testing and has even provided safety of the technicians. Our team of trained pathologists, with the help of an automated tracer, verify the results of every sample and implement quality checks to ensure the highest precision in testing for our patients.
Industry Leading Quality in Lab Results
At SIDC, we value that every result matters, and hence follow industry leading practices to produce results that you can rely on.
- NABL Accreditation: Our centralized laboratory is NABL Accredited, and follows stringent quality management norms with delta checks, assurances and internal testing.
- Dry Chemistry Based Technologies: Unlike most other leading NABL Accredited Pathology Labs in Lucknow, SIDC uses Dry Chemistry in most of its testing. Dry Chemistry is the most advanced technology from USA on a fully automated biochemistry platform giving quick, reliable, accurate, and consistent patient results. Clinicians rely on it to treat for better patient outcomes. It does not require external interventions like usage of a high amount of water or washing that eliminates these elements as potential sources of error. It uses a single disposable slide for every test with unique multi-layered Dry Slide Technology producing better precision & accuracy. It's main downside is that Dry chemistry has a higher cost and thus is more expensive to run, but at SIDC, we believe in serving the best, providing quality and world-class service at an affordable price ethically.
- Robotic Lab Automation: The implementation of VITROS Automation Solution for achieving Robotic Total Lab Automation for automated sample transfer between equipment, along with an automated decapper and conveyor belt (track automation), significantly mitigates human intervention in the lab further bolstering quality in processes.
- Internal Quality Controls (IQC): SIDC follows daily Internal Quality Control Checks in the laboratory across lab departments and divisions, because every results matters. Daily IQC checks has been the most important pillar for our lab in enabling our growth and cementing our industry leading reputation.
- Automation: At SIDC we focus on centralizing our operations to provide you consistent and dependable results across the laboratory divisions. Please read the instrumentation list below, to understand the reasons why our lab is emerging as the industry leader in the pathology space.
- External Quality Assurance Schemes (EQAS): To further strengthen our incessant quality efforts, SIDC follows EQAS programs for many tests in the lab to enable a performance comparison with peer labs across the globe.
- Inter-Lab Comparisons (ILC): In our strive to give you quality that you can rely on, we periodically engage in Inter Lab Comparisons with leading labs for many tests to ensure consistency with industry peers.
Stool for Fat Content
The test measures the amount of fat in a stool sample to evaluate fat absorption and digestion.
LBC with HPV DNA
The test combines liquid-based cytology (LBC) with human papillomavirus (HPV) DNA testing to screen for cervical cancer.
CLPD/Lymphoma Comprehensive Panel, Flow Cytometry
The test uses flow cytometry to evaluate chronic lymphoproliferative disorders and lymphomas.
PRA Screen (HLA Panel IgG Antibodies)
The test measures the levels of antibodies against a broad panel of Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA), reflecting a recipient's sensitivity to potential donor organs.
Vitamin B3 (Niacin)
The test measures the levels of niacin in the blood, which is crucial for energy production and cellular function. Niacin, also known as nicotinic acid, is vital for maintaining a healthy nervous system, digestive system, and skin. It also helps the body convert carbohydrates into glucose and metabolise fats and proteins.
Alpha and Beta Thalassemia Mutation Analysis
The test identifies genetic mutations in the alpha and beta globin genes that cause thalassemia.
Histo Biopsy Fallopian Tube
The procedure involves examining tissue samples under a microscope to evaluate abnormalities or diseases.
Germline HRR Panel with BRCA 1 & 2
The test looks for inherited mutations in the BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes, which are associated with an increased risk of breast, ovarian, and other cancers.
Anaerobic Fluid Culture & Sensitivity
The test identifies the growth of anaerobic bacteria in body fluids, which thrive in low-oxygen environments.
