ACCURATE DIAGNOSTICS. AMERICAN STANDARDS.
The heart of medicine requires making judgments based on careful analysis of

evidence. Patients’ lives depend on their doctors’ abilities to do so. In many cases,

the speed, accuracy, and confidence with which those judgments can be made

depend on the quality of that evidence. In matters of health, making clear judgments

demands incredibly high standards, performance, and precision.

AmPath delivers on each count. We set our standards on par with top American

universities and rely on their clinical direction of our operations to maintain

world-class benchmarks. We employ exact process controls that yield accurate,

reliable, and replicable performances. We have assembled a world-class clinical team,

invested in the latest technology, and adhere to stringent EQA and QC/QA schemes –

all of which combine to produce a level of precision previously unseen in India.

AmPath represents a new beginning for pathology

services in India, offering a wide-ranging menu of the
most advanced tests available anywhere in the world.
It is the only lab in India to collaborate with a US
hospital pathology lab.

Because it employs the same operational model and

adheres to the same strict policies and procedures adopted
by leading American university pathology labs, AmPath
delivers service of unrivaled quality and accuracy.

To ensure adherence to these high standards, AmPath has

created a Scientific Advisory Board. The SAB includes US
Board-certified pathologists who evaluate the competencies
of AmPath's scientific personnel and support AmPath's
endeavor to educate its clinical staff regarding the most
recent advanced in medical care and laboratory science.
Pathology services have evolved. New tests facilitate
faster diagnosis. Advanced protocols make screening
for a broad spectrum of health risks possible.
Highly specific studies guide doctors to choose
optimal therapies from the onset of treatment.
Pathology rests at the core of modern medicine,
helping physicians navigate clinical evidence and plan
clear care paths.
AmPath believes in the pathologist’s role as an integral
part of the patient’s medical team. Our doctors confer
and consult closely with ordering physicians to
interpret results and make accurate, actionable
diagnoses.
AmPath, thus, follows a process-driven approach
that allows us to live up to our promise of
meeting American university standards, delivering
100% reliable performance, and producing
unquestionably precise results on every test,
every time.
The pathology of today is the core data source for
evidence-based medicine. AmPath will set the
standards in India for the laboratory’s role in
patient care.

We aim to bring the world’s highest
standards in pathology to the forefront
of Indian medicine for an audience
ranging from front-line clinicians to lab
assistants.

Expert assistance
AmPath’s pathologists are renowned as leaders
in their various disciplines. Together, they
provide assistance in interpreting results and
identifying the next steps in treatment.

Multispecialty back-up
AmPath has immediate access to the services
of well-trained doctors and medical
professionals who can assist in the diagnosis
and treatment of a wide range of medical
conditions.
THE TECHNOLOGICAL PATH

AmPath has invested in cutting-edge equipment

that renders pathology services with utmost
precision. By putting this equipment together with
a high level of automation, AmPath advances
pathology services in India to a new frontier. Such
use of high-tech testing equipment and
automation helps AmPath to offer an incredibly
broad spectrum of services and also facilitates
error-free diagnosis.

In collaboration with RT-MediBus Technologies,

we have developed a dynamic Lab Information
System that promotes paperless electronic
reporting which, in turn, reduces turnaround times.
The LIS enables clinicians to register for tests right
at their desktops and simultaneously allows our
technical teams to obtain relevant clinical
information for data correlation and advice for
follow-up investigations.

Additional key technology initiatives at AmPath

include: a specimen tracking system, cloud-based
servers to enable patient login with instant access
to reports, data mining for research and audits,
and Electronic Medical Records (EMR) that can
seamlessly integrate patients’ lab results.
Clinical Chemistry
• An extensive test menu offering several
thousand tests
• Customized panels to suit the needs of
various departments
• Rare parameters such as therapeutic
drug monitoring, tumor markers, and
immunocapillary electrophoresis
Microbiology
• Automated platforms for blood,
TB culture and sensitivity
• Molecular platform for TB drug
sensitivity
• In-house viral load testing and
monitoring
Hematology
• Automated CBC platform providing a five-part
differential plan
• A modern flow cytometry platform,
one of the first installations of its kind
in India, to aid in lymphoma/leukemia diagnosis
Molecular Pathology
• First-of- its-kind chip-based gene
sequencing platform that allows
targeted and efficient sequencing
of specific genes or genomic regions
thus breaking clinico-laboratory
stigmas associated with conventional
molecular methods that are lengthy,
complex, and usually require large
amounts of input DNA
• A groundbreaking workflow enabling
the rapid sequencing of hundreds of
known cancer causing mutations with
low-frequency allele detection.
Utilizing low DNA input, this single-
tube workflow is as simple as setting
up a one-step PCR reaction. The
results generated therein provide
invaluable assistance to oncologists in
selecting and maneuvering targeted
genetic therapies - making cancer
treatment successful and also cost
effective

Histopathology
• Sub-specialty reporting
• Strict adherence to College of American
Pathologists guidelines with protocol-based
reports including relevant diagnostics and
prognostic information
• Complete theranostic reports with integrated
histopathology and molecular pathology
