Genetics
The discipline of molecular diagnostics is the fastest growing sector of laboratory medicine today. We are developing and commercialising new tests at a rapid rate to assist doctors provide better screening, detection and prevention medicine.
All of the DNA in the human cell makes up what is called the human genome.
There are estimated to be about 30,000 gene pairs in each cell and these genes make up a person's genetic blueprint. The Human Genome Project has mapped the location, of all but a few of the genes in the human cells.
At Healthscope molecular we are adapting and developing new tests that will have more relevance to most people.
Our test menu is growing all the time, so please visit us regularly to keep up with the latest.
