Lab technology

The instruments behind your result.

Most laboratories will not tell you what your sample was run on. Here are all 4 of ours, what each one measures, and how we keep them honest.

Immunoassay

Chemiluminescence Immunoassay (CLIA) Analyzer

Clinical-grade CLIA platform

High-sensitivity hormonal, thyroid, fertility and tumour-marker testing using chemiluminescence — the gold standard for immunoassays in modern diagnostic laboratories.

What it runs

  • Thyroid panel (TSH, T3, T4, FT3, FT4)
  • Fertility & hormones (FSH, LH, Prolactin, Testosterone)
  • Vitamin D, Vitamin B12
  • Tumour markers (PSA, CEA, CA-125, AFP)

Quality control

An analyzer is only as good as its last calibration.

  • Calibrated daily

    Every analyzer is calibrated at the start of each working day, before a single patient sample is run.

  • Quality-control samples

    Known-value control samples run alongside patient samples, so a drifting instrument is caught the same day.

  • Fully automated

    Automated platforms remove the manual steps where human error creeps into a result.

Every test these analyzers run is on our public price list, in LKR.
