We also occasionally experience reagent stock-outs, which can disrupt the smooth operation of our services https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55913715e4b0a675d672772c/9ebffa6b-00a6-4227-9d20-f8e77b22688e/tech.jpg Lab Spotlight - Department of Chemical Pathology at University of Nigeria Teaching Hospital in Enugu State, Nigeria - Q: Can you share any accomplishments that you are particularly proud of? A: One of the major accomplishments we are proud of is that our lab is one of the few public clinical laboratories in Nigeria that utilizes a Laboratory Information System (LIS). This system is integrated with the hospital's electronic medical records (EMR), which has significantly improved our ability to manage data and report results more efficiently. This integration allows for faster result reporting and makes it easier for clinicians in the wards and clinics to access lab results promptly, which ultimately leads to better patient care. Another accomplishment we are proud of is our enrollment in an External Quality Assurance program, administered by the Royal College of Pathologists of Australasia. We have been participating in this program for the past six years, and during this time, we have consistently performed at an optimal level. This external oversight has contributed to the continuous improvement of the quality of our lab services. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55913715e4b0a675d672772c/4f9b1b0f-b985-47ce-a273-86ad52076e9e/group+photo.jpg Lab Spotlight - Department of Chemical Pathology at University of Nigeria Teaching Hospital in Enugu State, Nigeria - Q: Are there any exciting future plans for your lab? A: Yes, we have several exciting developments in the works. To address the issue of unreliable electricity, we are in the process of installing solar power systems to ensure an uninterrupted power supply to the lab. We are also focused on achieving full accreditation of our laboratory, which will enhance the quality of our services and bring us in line with international standards. In addition, we are planning to introduce new tests to expand our service offerings, as well as engage in continuous retraining of our staff to improve both the efficiency and accuracy of our laboratory results. https://pathologistsoverseas.org/lab-spotlight/2024/8/28/laboratory-of-hematology-at-dalal-jamm-hospital-in-dakar-senegal-333r4 monthly 0.5 2025-10-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55913715e4b0a675d672772c/2fc86592-6505-4743-a6ec-0b93f6194da4/PHOTO-2024-08-13-09-38-26.jpg Lab Spotlight - Laboratory of Hematology at Dalal Jamm Hospital in Dakar, Senegal - Q: Can you tell us about your lab?

A: The Uganda Cancer Institute is a specialized public medical facility under the Ministry of Health, dedicated to cancer care and research. In order to support efficient patient care and participation in research, a fully functional laboratory was established. Over time, the laboratory has undergone several transformational changes, expanding its scope from basic blood investigations to becoming a super-specialized facility offering a wide array of diagnostic and monitoring tests. Our laboratory operates under one management structure with three major sections: pathology, clinical, and molecular biology. Each section is equipped with specialized equipment tailored to their respective functions. We have a team of 33 highly specialized staff covering areas such as anatomical pathology, hematology, blood transfusion molecular biology, microbiology, immunology ,histopathology and biochemistry. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55913715e4b0a675d672772c/1586650a-42ca-4247-b1f5-4b729d495514/IMG_0398.jpg Lab Spotlight - Laboratory at Uganda Cancer Institute in Kampala, Uganda - Q: What is the scope and volume of testing conducted at your laboratory? A: The Uganda Cancer Institute plays a crucial role in the healthcare system, providing services for up to 100 inpatients and managing 350 – 450 outpatient visits daily. Each year, we receive over 8400 new cancer patients. Our laboratory at the institute has an extensive test scope, encompassing a wide range of biochemistry tests, tumor, and haematological investigations, including complete blood count, coagulation assays, hemoglobin and serum electrophoresis, reticulocytes, and blood films for morphology and hemoparasites. Additionally, we perform histopathology, cytology staining, and numerous immunohistochemistry assays, along with serological assays, culture and sensitivity tests, and molecular biology tests such as BCR/ABL, HPV general typing, BRCA1/2 genome sequencing, and viral load assays for HIV and Hepatitis B. Each month, our laboratory conducts approximately one million biochemistry tests, 8600 complete blood tests, 1000 assorted hematological tests, 650 histological tests, 1350 IHCs, and 450 assorted genomic tests. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55913715e4b0a675d672772c/a3c174c0-8438-4640-80c8-393b104430ff/IMG_0566.jpg Lab Spotlight - Laboratory at Uganda Cancer Institute in Kampala, Uganda - Q: What are some accomplishments your lab is proud of? The Uganda Cancer Institute is making significant strides towards establishing a national reference laboratory for cancer diagnosis and research. To support this goal, substantial investments have been made in human resource capacity building. Several laboratory professionals have been trained in all key specialties at the institute, and all trained personnel have been retained to help extend their acquired skills to others who may lack such techniques. However, to continue improving the state of the Uganda Cancer Institute Laboratory, staff require more hands-on training in well-established laboratories. Additionally, the laboratory is in the final preparatory stages for SANAS accreditation and will undergo the initial SANAS assessment in July 2024. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55913715e4b0a675d672772c/bd7cb00c-a361-4a0b-a373-e2c22e7eaa8b/IMG_0598.jpg Lab Spotlight - Laboratory at Uganda Cancer Institute in Kampala, Uganda - Q: What challenges does your lab face? A: The main difficulties we face include the need for staff retraining, and we are considering setting up a continuous training program. There are also challenges in financing new tests and equipment to increase our capacity. Additionally, not all the tests at the laboratory are part of an External Quality Assurance (EQA) program due to the very high costs involved. Furthermore, we struggle with outdated equipment. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55913715e4b0a675d672772c/ae856a23-551b-4c9d-92a5-ae592410e86e/IMG_0608.jpg Lab Spotlight - Laboratory at Uganda Cancer Institute in Kampala, Uganda - Q: What are your future plans for the lab?
