What Is Laboratory Testing and Screening?

Lab services are an inherent part of clinical medicine. Lab tests or screening detect potential health disorders and undiagnosed illnesses, usually diseases with overlapping or few symptoms. Professionals perform These tests using specific methods or devices by analyzing naturally eliminated fluids, external body tissues, internal body fluids, and tissues or swabs. Materials drawn from one body are handed off to a healthcare provider or lab technician for further action. Below are a few examples of specimens that are collected and tested in our lab:

Blood
Urine
Stool
Saliva
Sputum (coughed mucus or phlegm)
Semen
Vaginal secretion swabs
Nasal or throat swabs
Wound swabs
Skin biopsy
Hair or fingernails
Cerebrospinal fluid
Needle or organ biopsy

Getting lab tests performed and having the results onsite allows a doctor to start or adjust a timely treatment course for patients with lingering medical conditions. So, don’t wait for your symptoms to worsen; visit Southwest Urgent Care today for your screening and take a step towards a healthy lifestyle.
