A DEXA is a detailed and highly accurate method of measuring body composition, providing you with an in-depth analysis of your fat tissue, muscle mass and body completion. Dexa gives a reliable measurement of whole-body and segmental analysis of body composition. body fat distribution differs from person to person. distribution of bodyfat is a more important indicator of health risk than percentage of fat. don’t rely on the scales. get the whole picture with an advanced body composition assessment. this is only available through Dexa.

This field combines biology as well as chemistry to study the chemical structure of a living organism. The biochemists get into the investigation of the chemical reactions and combinations which are involved in various processes like reproduction, heredity, metabolism, and growth, thus performing research in different kind of laboratories. Biochemistry includes wide areas of molecular biology as well as cell biology. It is relevant to molecules that make up the structure of organs and cells which is the molecular anatomy.

“Cyto” refers to cell and “pathology” to disease. Cytology tests look at cells, which are usually obtained from fluid samples, scrapings, or brushings. These tests are used to examine single cells or small clusters of cells and to assess whether they are normal or show signs of disease. Cytopathology is the study of disease at the cellular level. “Cyto” refers to cell and “pathology” to disease. Cytology tests are done on cells in fluid aspirations, scrapings or brushings to look at single cells or small clusters of cells and assess whether they are normal or show signs of disease.

Hematology is the study of blood and blood disorders. Hematologists and hematopathologists are highly trained healthcare providers who specialize in diseases of the blood and blood components. These include blood and bone marrow cells. Hematological tests can help diagnose anemia, infection, hemophilia, blood-clotting disorders, and leukemia. This area of hematology focuses on diagnosing and treating blood cancers, such as myeloma. Blood cancers start in the cells of the immune system or tissues that make blood cells, such as bone marrow. Anemias are conditions that lead to low levels of hemoglobin or red blood cells in the body.

Histopathology is the diagnosis and study of diseases of the tissues, and involves examining tissues and/or cells under a microscope. Histopathologists are responsible for making tissue diagnoses and helping clinicians manage a patient’s care. Histopathologists are doctors who work closely with other clinical specialties. They can reach a diagnosis by examining a small piece of tissue from the skin, liver, kidney or other organ. This is called a biopsy.

Immunology is the study of the immune system and is a very important branch of the medical and biological sciences. The immune system protects us from infection through various lines of defence. If the immune system is not functioning as it should, it can result in disease, such as autoimmunity, allergy and cancer. Immunology has its origins in the study of how the body protects itself against infectious diseases caused by microorganisms, such as bacteria, viruses, protozoa, and fungi, and also parasitic organisms, such as helminth worms.

Microbiology is the study of microscopic organisms, such as bacteria, fungi, and protists. It also includes the study of viruses, which are not technically classified as living organisms but do contain genetic material. Microbiology is the study of all living organisms that are too small to be visible with the naked eye. This includes bacteria, archaea, viruses, fungi, prions, protozoa and algae, collectively known as ‘microbes’. These microbes play key roles in nutrient cycling, biodegradation/biodeterioration, climate change, food spoilage, the cause and control of disease, and biotechnology.

A computerized tomography (CAT or CT) scan is an imaging technique that provides a detailed cross-section image of the body. It makes use of rotating x-ray machines and computers to create these images. These images are more detailed than normal x-ray results. A computerized tomography (CT) scan combines a series of X-ray images taken from different angles around your body and uses computer processing to create cross-sectional images (slices) of the bones, blood vessels and soft tissues inside your body. CT scan images provide more-detailed information than plain X-rays do.
