The DMLT course is designed to equip students with the skills and knowledge required to perform laboratory tests and assist in diagnosing diseases. The syllabus covers subjects such as Human Anatomy and Physiology, Biochemistry, Microbiology, and Pathology, focusing on the technical and scientific aspects of laboratory work. The course encompasses blood collection methods, urine analysis, hematology, immunology, and the working of diagnostic equipment. It also insists on the safe maintenance of a laboratory and the significance of error-free reporting.
Practical sessions: DMLT trains its students in hands-on work, directly in a clinical laboratory setting. Other aspects that might be covered are ethics in medicine, management of laboratories, clinical biochemistry, and quality control methods. It will train the students for multiple roles in a healthcare setting: hospitals, clinics, diagnostic labs, and research institutions. By completing the DMLT program, the graduate is trained to manage laboratory equipment, perform tests, analyze results, and be an effective part of healthcare diagnostics and patient care.
