Pathology, Genomics, Cell Therapy and Laboratory Medicine

The Pathology Department will be dedicated to delivering exceptional patient care while advancing the frontiers of pathology and medicine through research. Our team of highly skilled pathologists will play a vital role in guiding accurate diagnoses and treatment decisions, significantly contributing to both clinical excellence and research initiatives Our department will include specialized areas including surgical pathology, anatomic pathology, cytopathology, clinical chemistry, hematology (for benign and malignant diseases), genetics and genomics, microbiology, immunology, point-of-care testing, and a comprehensive blood bank. This integrated approach ensures precise diagnostics and enhances patient outcomes.

This pillar focuses on understanding diseases at the most fundamental levels. Pathology provides vital insights into the cause and progression of diseases, while genomics explores a patient’s unique genetic makeup to unlock personalized treatment options. Cell therapy offers transformative solutions for conditions such as cancer, autoimmune disorders, and degenerative diseases by using advanced regenerative medicine techniques. Laboratory medicine ensures that all tests, from routine bloodwork to complex molecular diagnostics, are performed with the highest precision. Together, these services empower clinicians to develop highly targeted and effective treatment plans, enabling early detection, prevention, and intervention.

Radiology and Interventional and Therapeutic Radiology

Imaging plays a critical role in diagnosing and treating illnesses, and this pillar represents the pinnacle of medical imaging technology. Radiology provides clear, detailed images of the body, enabling early detection of conditions such as tumors, cardiovascular diseases, and neurological disorders. Interventional and therapeutic radiology takes this step further by using imaging guidance to perform minimally invasive procedures, such as biopsies, tumor ablations, and vascular interventions. These techniques not only reduce recovery times but also minimize risks, offering patients safer alternatives to traditional surgeries.

The department offers a wide range of diagnostic and interventional imaging services, fusing cutting-edge technology with patient-centered care. Our radiologists use state-of-the-art processes and international standard protocols to provide accurate and precise diagnoses, guaranteeing that you get the best care possible. Although services are provided mainly within the department of radiology, point of care services are performed with high precision in the outpatient clinics, emergency departments, Intensive care units, maternity service and the operations suits. Our experts provide services across many medical and surgical conditions, including advanced procedures for the brain, colon, lung, liver and kidneys among many others. The procedures are done by highly skilled physicians, nurses, and technologists in a controlled environment of patient safety, high quality, and compassionate care. The department is equipped with cutting edge technologies including CT and MR scans, digital radiology, fluoroscopy, mammography, mobile CT scan, and ultrasound technologies.

Nuclear Medicine Diagnostics and Therapy

This pillar combines the power of nuclear imaging with cutting-edge therapeutic techniques to treat complex diseases. Nuclear medicine uses small amounts of radioactive materials to provide detailed insights into organ function and detect abnormalities at their earliest stages. Beyond diagnostics, this field has advanced to deliver precise, targeted therapies, such as radioisotope treatments for cancer, that minimize damage to surrounding healthy tissue. This integration of diagnostics and therapy ensures patients receive comprehensive care that addresses their needs in a precise and effective manner.

The nuclear diagnostics and therapeutic department employ highly skilled healthcare professionals who diagnose and treat a wide range of diseases using advanced imaging and molecular technologies. Our team specializes in producing detailed pictures of metabolic and physiological changes at molecular and cellular levels utilizing cutting-edge imaging equipment like SPECT CT and PET CT scanners. Such technologies help physicians identify early changes of disease and the location and extent of disease. Technology is useful in detecting abnormalities and diseases of several common and rare conditions such as coronary heart disease, heart muscle, cancer, infection, brain structure and functional abnormalities including epilepsy and dementia, brain strokes, thyroid and adrenal disease, in addition to several bone, lung, liver and kidney diseases.
