Personnel and Facilities:
The Clinical Microbiology/Virology Laboratories are staffed by over
40 medical technologists and clinical laboratory scientists. The laboratories
provide service 365 days a year to meet the medical needs of the University
of Michigan Health System and the clients of the M-Labs program. The
laboratories occupy approximately 6000 square feet in the University
of Michigan Health System and perform approximately 300,000 tests annually.
The laboratories provide full service diagnostic testing in bacteriology,
virology, mycology, parasitology, and molecular diagnostics, and use
the latest in automated instrumentation in many of these areas to provide
the most advanced testing technology available. The Clinical Microbiology/Virology
Laboratory has close ties with Adult and Pediatric Infectious Diseases,
the Infection Control Program, the Department of Pharmacy, and the School
of Public Health. Such working relationships provide ongoing analysis
of drugs/bacterial/viral interactions that allow for dynamic reporting
to clinicians on the floors, and foster productive research collaborations
that directly result in improving the quality of care provided to our
patients. |
Accreditation:
The Clinical Microbiology/Virology Laboratories are accredited by the College
of American Pathologists (CAP) and active in the CAP Laboratory
Accreditation and Proficiency Testing programs. |
