Medical areas and tests in-depth
Our portfolio of more than 4,000 tests are customisable to adapt to you and your patient’s unique needs.
Reproductive Health
Prenatal Diagnosis
Screening and diagnosis on prenatal samples (foetal cells or foetal cellfree DNA) can detect the presence of aneuploidies, monogenic diseases, or other genomic structural abnormalities, thus identifying high-risk pregnancies.
Infertility panels
Infertility tests can identify the genetic infertility cause and facilitate informed family planning that may include assisted reproductive technology, such as IVF.
Carrier Screening
Our WES-based carrier screening is designed to detect variants across diverse ethnic backgrounds, safeguarding against overlooked population-specific risks. This allows families to make informed decisions, prioritising the health of future generations during their planning process.
Chromosomal analysis
Karyotype analysis can detect structural (balanced rearrangements) and numerical (changes in sex chromosomes) abnormalities that can be the cause of reproductive disorders.
Pathology
Unleashing the power of pathology for improved healthcare
Pathology plays an integral role in healthcare by helping diagnose, monitor and understand diseases and their mechanisms.
Our extensive range of pathology services, supported by our experienced international team of pathologists, enables us to meet your primary needs in histopathology and cytology. We also offer innovative tests and technologies, including molecular and digital pathology, to support high quality diagnostics for you and your patients.
Our expertise and services are designed to support timely and informed decision-making and to help you deliver high-quality care.
