Unlocking Health Secrets with Cutting-Edge
Molecular Diagnostics

Molecular Diagnostics involves detecting specific sequences of DNA or RNA to identify genetic markers associated with diseases. These tests provide crucial clinical information that enhances the accuracy of diagnoses and the effectiveness of treatment. Molecular Diagnostics plays a vital role in various medical fields, including infectious diseases, oncology, pharmacogenomics, genetic disease screening, human leukocyte antigen typing, and coagulation studies. By leveraging precise genetic analysis, Molecular Diagnostics supports personalized and targeted healthcare solutions.
