Laboratory medicine is a branch of medicine concerned with the quantitative measurement, or qualitative assessment, of any substance which can be assayed in any type of biological fluid for either medical or research purposes. It finds a wide variety of applications in improving the health and healthcare of patients. From measuring cholesterol levels to determining a patient’s risk for cardiovascular disease and sequencing the DNA of tumours to help decide the best choice of chemotherapy, lab medicine is used everywhere.
