Advanced Diagnostics possess state of art department of Microbiology which has one of the foremost modular laboratories of our state. At AOL’s department of microbiology, we offer a plethora of test ranging from most basic/ routine ones to the most advanced/ molecular diagnostics with utmost precision providing quality assured reports.

Advanced Diagnostics boosts of highly sensitive diagnostic procedures excelling in detecting Mycobacterium tuberculosis in urine and endometrium and tissues from other parts of the body which helps in diagnosis of pulmonary and extra pulmonary tuberculosis, especially in case of infertility where it is grossly under detected. We also provide gold standard diagnosis for fungal infection.

The incidence and significance of fungal infections increased manifold owing to Covid and its complications .The various tests available range from basic staining methods like ZN, KOH, AFB, cultures to most advanced tests such as RMT,APL panel, ANA profile, ANA IFA method etc., We specialize in doing RMT in tissues particularly Endometrium. TAT for most of the basic staining methods is 48hrs, for bacterial cultures is 3days and for the advanced techniques range from 7-1Odays.
