How this diagnostic category is organized
Tests in Infectious Disease & Molecular Microbiology are grouped into first-line screening and biomarkers, reflex assays that may follow an initial result, and confirmatory genetic panels. The appropriate pathway depends on the clinical question and any prior results; a larger panel is not automatically the right choice.
Consult a qualified clinician or genetic counselor before booking. They can help determine whether testing is suitable and explain how results should be interpreted alongside your medical history.
Before sample collection
Confirm the specimen, preparation instructions and collection options for your selected test with the laboratory. Requirements differ by test and location.
