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.
Phenytoin
This test is generally useful to evaluate treatment, toxicity and monitoring the patients
DHEA
It is a blood test that measures DHEA Sulphate (DHEAS) levels in the blood. It is a male sex hormone and is found in both males and females. It plays a vital role in making testosterone (male sex hormone) and estrogen (female sex hormone).
Urine Prot/Creat Ratio - 24 Hour
This test is generally to evaluate kidney function.
Beta-2 Micro Globulin
Increased in patients with various malignant and immunological disorders
Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV)-I IgM
HSV 1 is the primary cause of Orolabial infection and HSV encephalitis. Presence of HSV 1 IgM is indicator of recent HSV 1 infection
Beta-2 Glycoprotein IgM
This test helps to detect and measure Beta-2 Glycoprotein antibodies in the blood. This test may be recommended when an individual has symptoms like excessive blood clotting or APS, mini-strokes, frequent miscarriages, and more.
Bence Jones Protein
A Bence Jones Protein test is a urine test that detects unusual levels of proteins. Doctors recommend this test in case of infections, high-level blood calcium, low-level platelets, diagnosed multiple myeloma, etc.
Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV)-II IgM
Herpes Simplex Virus-II, HSV 2 is the primary cause of Genital Herpes and Neonatal HSV infection.
Endomysial Antibody, IgA
This test is used in the diagnosis of celiac disease and dermatitis herpetiformis.
