Our chemical pathologists analyse chemicals in our body fluids and tissues to help diagnose and manage disease. They play a unique dual role of doctor-scientist, looking at changes in human body chemistry for screening, diagnosis, prognosis and management.

Haematology

Our haematologists help diagnose and treat blood diseases and cancers.

Immunology

Our immunologists help us better understand and treat diseases of the human immune system.

Microbiology

Our microbiologists and virologists are critical to NSW public health and emergency responses to pathogen-borne disease, and their expertise is recognised world-wide.

Pre and Post-Analytical

This is the process that happens before and after specimens reach our labs for testing, providing vital links between pathology requests, diagnostic testing and results.

Transfusion

Our transfusion service is critical to the operation of emergency and in-patient care across NSW.
