Quality Assurance

For us, quality comes first!!

At NOBLE DIAGNOSTIC CENTRE, Quality is a Priority.

To ensure you get only high quality testing giving precise results, we undertake the following activities :

• Quality Control

• Accreditations

• Surveys from external agencies

Internal Quality Control

Daily internal quality control on all testing systems is processed before commencement of testing. Only after QC tests are pass as per international guidelines,testing is performed.

External Quality Assurance Programs

External quality assessment programs are accepted around the world as invaluable tools used by laboratories to assess the performance of their testing systems. Results are objectively compared to other laboratories using the same methodologies, instruments and reagents. When used in conjunction with daily quality control, these external programs give us added confidence in patient test results.
