Clinical Pathology
Clinical Pathology at NUH comprises four specialist departments:
- Clinical Chemistry
- Diagnostic Haematology
- Immunology
- Blood Transfusion
We provide a wide range of analytical and advisory services, which are available for inpatients, outpatients and the community at large. As you would expect from a large teaching hospital this service is backed up with training and research programmes designed to improve patient care.
To ensure the highest standard of work we participate in extensive internal and external quality assurance schemes.
