What Pathologists DoThe Study of Pathology
Pathology is a branch of medicine that examines disease through the study of bodily fluids and tissues.
Flow cytometry is a method for detecting small numbers of abnormal cells in a sample of blood, bone marrow or other tissue. Our flow cytometer is able to detect a single abnormal cell among 10,000 normal cells.

When your doctor takes a tissue or fluid sample, one of our couriers drives to the hospital or doctor’s office to pick up that sample for analysis.
