In 2006, PathLab Medical Laboratories Ltd was the first clinical medical laboratory in Hong Kong to be accredited for HOKLAS ISO 15189:2012. Presently we are accredited in the following disciplines.
- Chemical Pathology
- Clinical Microbiology and Infection
- Haematology
- Immunology
- Molecular Genetics
Our laboratory accreditation number is 805S. Since our scope of accredited tests is continually being updated to view a current list of our tests, please view the HKAS website, which lists the tests for which we are accredited.
Laboratory accreditation is awarded as a result of a series of stringent on-site inspections by HOKLAS-approved pathologists and scientists from HK and overseas. HOKLAS medical testing standards are based on the requirements of ISO 15189:2012. Inspection of policies, procedures, records, internal Quality Control and External Quality Assurance Programs (EQAP) were all part of the process.
ISO 15189 is now the world-recognized medical laboratory accreditation standard. It has been adopted by scores of countries. HOKLAS has concluded mutual recognition agreements/arrangements (MRA) with more almost 100 laboratory accreditation bodies making it the most.
PathLab went through the medical testing accreditation process because it wishes to ensure the highest standard of laboratory results, in order to provide reliable and accurate diagnostic information for dctors, and for the care of their patients. It has served Hong Kong, Kowloon and New Territories physicians, hospitals and other medically-related institutions for over 40 years.
Laboratory Director, Mrs. Marianne Leung said, "PathLab has never been prouder than to achieve this international standard accreditation. We will endeavour to keep our commitment to quality, and to maintain our standards in service and technology."
