Title

Lab Tests Online: Welcome!

Description

The work of the clinical laboratory professional - who analyzes chemical indicators in the body to provide the doctor with a clearer picture of a patient's health - has long been an unseen aspect of health care. Yet, clinical lab tests often provide the link between the patient's presentation of symptoms and the doctor's diagnosis of and prescribed treatment for a particular condition or disease. Through preventative screening, lab tests also aid in the early detection of potentially fatal conditions, and in so doing, lead to early treatment. In short, lab tests can help both to save lives and to improve the quality of life.

Lab Tests Online has been designed to help you, as a patient or caregiver, to better understand the many clinical lab tests that are part of routine care as well as diagnosis and treatment of a broad range of conditions and diseases. Our Features page describes what you can find on the site, and how it can benefit you.

The site is the product of a collaboration of professional societies representing the lab community. We are launching this site at a time when health care consumers are being asked to assume more responsibility for their care. Knowing more about lab tests and the issues surrounding testing is an important step in this direction.
