BIOCHEMISTRY

The department’s clinical biochemistry section is equipped with fully automated analyzers, semi automated analyzers, electrolyte analyzers, arterial blood gas analyzers, fully automated Chemiluminescence analyzers etc to evaluate to organ profiles for the right diagnosis , monitor patient compliance and outcome of treatment.

The modern equipments for measuring levels of various substances in blood, body fluids like CSF , pleural, ascitic fluids and in urine are used. The following parameters like Glucose, urea, Creatinine, uric acid, lipid profile, serum electrolytes, LFT, calcium , Serum amylase, lipase, lactate Dehydrogenase, Glycosylated Hemoglobin, cardiac markers (CKMB and Troponin T) along with various hormones and tumour markers is measured. Regular quality control checks are performed on these equipments and we are also involved in external quality assurance programme conducted by CMC vellore to give reliable reports.
