The process starts with a test ordered for a specific clinical reason. A sample such as blood, urine or tissue is collected, labelled and processed using the appropriate laboratory method. Results are checked against quality controls and reported for clinical interpretation. Some abnormal or unexpected results need repeat testing, correlation with other tests or direct discussion between the treating clinician and pathologist.
The specialist first reviews your symptoms, when they began, previous treatment, current medicines and relevant medical history.
A focused examination is performed according to the symptoms and the body system involved.
Tests are advised when they can help clarify the diagnosis, assess severity or guide treatment.
The care plan is based on the diagnosis and may include medicines, monitoring, rehabilitation, a procedure, surgery or referral when appropriate.
The specialist decides which investigations are appropriate after reviewing the history and examination findings.
Pathology and laboratory services support diagnosis and treatment decisions through clinical testing and report interpretation.
Practical information to help patients prepare for a specialist consultation.
Not always. Reference ranges are one part of interpretation. Symptoms, age, medicines, previous values and the reason for testing can change the clinical meaning.
No. Fasting requirements depend on the specific test. Follow the instructions given by the doctor or laboratory for your ordered tests.
Repeat testing can be needed to confirm an unexpected result, monitor change over time, or address a sample/technical issue.
Laboratory reports do not replace clinical assessment. If you have severe or rapidly worsening symptoms, seek medical care promptly even if test results are pending.
