Molecular Diagnostics

Molecular diagnostics is a branch of medical testing that examines genes, proteins, and nucleic acids to diagnose diseases, guide treatment, and predict outcomes. In chemical pathology, it helps identify specific genetic markers related to conditions like cancer or inherited diseases. By analyzing small samples, such as blood or tissue, these tests provide precise information about a patient's health, allowing for personalized medicine. This approach enhances the accuracy of diagnoses and can improve the effectiveness of treatments, leading to better patient care and outcomes.
