Reference Services

Reference Services

The Reference Services Division in Pathology is comprised of multiple laboratories involved in specialised or complex analysis, expert consultation, and confirmation of difficult diagnoses.

The services cover a variety of specialisms, including paediatric and adult metabolic investigations, donor/recipient organ transplantation compatibility, toxicology/trace elements analysis, nutritional assessment, R&D, therapeutic drug monitoring and immunology.

These services are a crucial resource for clinicians, providing targeted analysis using a variety of advanced techniques.

Many of our laboratories support other hospitals and community health units across the country.
