AppointmentLABORATORY
The OMI Pathology Lab has been functioning since the inception of the hospital and has maintained a steady upward growth to stay abreast of the latest developments in laboratory medicine. It is registered with RIQAS, the UK – based quality assurance scheme.
The lab work is greatly facilitated by automated analysers, which ensures high performance standards within a short period of time.
The lab is organised into a number of sub – units and performs a wide – range of diagnostic tests, including quantitative measurements and specialised tests.
The departments comprise:
- Haematology Department which performs all routine hematological tests and includes a blood bank
- Chemical Pathology Department which performs routine biochemistry as well as specialised tests which are performed on sophisticated automated machines
- Microbiology and Serology Department
- Histopathology and Cytopathology Department
- Parasitology and Clinical Pathology Department
All these services are provided by the coordinated efforts of a number of professional e.g. pathologists, lab technicians, phlebotomists, bio-medical engineers and the administrative staff.

NON-INVASIVE CARDIAC LAB
The Cardiac Non-Invasive Laboratory is conveniently situated next to the Cath Lab. It is equipped with specialised machinery which allows for compete echocardiographic examination including the following:
- Two-Dimensional Echo
- Colour Doppler Imaging
- Exercise Stress Echocardiogram
- Pharmacological Stress Echo
- Transeosophageal Echocardiogram
- Peripheral Vascular Doppler
Other comprehensive state of the art facilities including:

NEUROLOGY LAB
The in-house facility of a Neurology Lab makes it convenient for In-Patient & Out-Patient to undergo neurological investigations under the supervision of a consultant neurologist. The investigations carried out at Neurology Lab are:
- Electroencephalogram (EEG)
- EEG (Sleep Deprived)
- Sleep Study Polysomnography
- Electromyography (EMG) / Nerve Conduction Study (NCS)
DIAGNOSTIC ENDOSCOPIES
The examination that is to look at the bodies internal organs is performed using various Endoscopes. Apart from a visual study, biopsies can also be performed.
These procedures are performed routinely at OMI for the upper and lower digestive tract as well as ear, nose, throat, joints and urinary tract. Highly trained specialists in this field can therefore carry out diagnostic and therapeutic procedures under optimal conditions.
VASCULAR STUDIES
These tests are used to check the blood in your arteries and veins, and are done by Non-Invasive, painless methods, for regions such as the neck, arms, and legs. They can detect abnormal conditions of the blood vessels themselves as well as the blood flow through these vessels. Conditions such as blood vessel blockages or plaque build-up that narrow vessels, put people at risk for aneurysms, strokes or other vascular diseases.
Various methods used for these studies are available at OMI, such as the Cath Lab, ABI Duplex Scan, CTA, and Ultrasound. Expert, careful hands of specialists utilise these facilities to aid in diagnosis and recovery.
