Medical Laboratories

Establishments in the Medical Laboratories industry primarily engage in providing analytic or diagnostic services, including the examination of blood, urine, and other bodily fluids and tissues. These laboratories perform tests that are essential for the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of diseases, offering services such as routine blood tests, pathology tests, and genetic testing. The defining characteristic of this industry is its focus on laboratory testing and analysis, distinguishing it from other healthcare industries that may provide direct patient care or manufacture medical equipment.
