Dr Balwant Singh’s Hospital yesterday launched its histopathology laboratory and a 128 Slice CT Scanner which will greatly assist in the detection, diagnosis and treatment of patients while saving precious time.
Both the laboratory and scanner are a first for Guyana with a combined cost of some US$3.5 million. A histopathology laboratory enables a number of services that involve examining tissues and ultimately detecting diseases
Present at the launch were the hospital’s Chief Executive Officer, Dr Madhu Singh, a Siemens Clinical Product specialist, the hospital’s Internal Medicine Specialist, President Irfaan Ali and other representatives of the government and medical staff.
