OUR SERVICES
Our lab is proudly using only original and high grade consumables to ensure the highest quality of processing and screening of tissues allowing an accurate diagnostic outcome.
At SGS Diagnostics, we offer a range of histopathology services using state of the art equipment, automation and robotics. Our services include cancer diagnosis, infectious disease diagnosis, dermatopathology, and much more. Our highly qualified pathologists work round the clock to provide quick and accurate diagnosis.
H&E Staining
Hematoxylin and Eosin staining is the basis and most widely used stain in histology and medical diagnosis. We provide diagnostics on all types of human tissues for a wide range of histopathologic conditions. We process solid as well as fluid samples (fine-needle aspirations FNA)
Special Stains
We utilise specialised stains such as Giemsa and Periodic Acid-Shiff staining which are a variety of complex techniques that target different tissue pathology to better aid the consultant's diagnosis.
Immunohistochemistry (IHC)
An impressive library of antibodies allows us to target, identify and differentiate abnormalities within histological tissues aiding our diagnosis. Using the highest quality antibodies on the market in combination with state of the art equipment we produce highly accurate and reproducible results.
Frozen Sections
For emergency biopsies, to perform a rapid microscopic analysis of a specimen we use the frozen section procedure (cryosection) which involves freezing the samples and eliminating the need of time consuming tissue fixation. Mostly used during live oncological surgeries.
Paraffin blocks and glass slide samples are stored for 10 years.
Test Papanicolaou
We are able to process a large number of Pap tests using state of the art robotics in combination with ThinPrep technology and consumables to ensure an even monolayer of cells on the glass slide, allowing our experts to microscopically examine with clarity.
