In order to ensure the quality of the treatment provide to the patient. The Services of a well-functioning Laboratory is of the utmost important. This access not only ensure that healthcare provides can diagnose their patients it also plays critical role in minimizing the cost of healthcare for patients and the possibility of the serious medical errors from taking place.The laboratory Services must ensure the scope of their services are commensurate with the scope of their Healthcare Commission providing testing facilities based on the type of their services providing by the hospital In the instances test are unavailable and not feasible to the patients using in-house facilities it is responsibilities of the laboratory services to collaborate with the high-quality laboratories accessible to the patients.Pathology Laboratory at THQ Hospital is equipped with most advances diagnostic equipment to facilitate patients towards their diagnosis and treatment plan. Pathology laboratory is concerned with the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of infectious diseases. Medical Lab Technologists and Pathological team is working provide accurate diagnostic input to Clinical Physicians and Surgeons.

Future Plans
Enlisted below are the future plans:
- We are only doing routine testing in Lab till now. Our Future Plan is to furnish our laboratory with automation. Automated Chemistry Analyzer is the need of time. Electrolyte Analyzer is also required in Laboratory. Automated ESR instrument is important
- We are not doing coagulation profile in Lab. Our Future plan is to start PT, Aptt, INR testing in lab.For this we require man power and automated equipment.
