Clinical Biochemistry
Think of the clinical biochemistry lab as a health detective for people. It uses techniques to check our blood and fluids, kind of like investigating the threads of our health. The lab looks closely at parameters like sugar and fats to see if our organs are doing well or if there's anything unusual in our body’s functioning. The quick and accurate results from these labs give doctors the information they need to make the best decisions for keeping us healthy, creating a full picture of how our bodies are doing
