Medical Laboratory Technicians
Medical Laboratory Technicians (MLTs) are healthcare professionals who perform laboratory tests to help diagnose and treat diseases. They work with various samples, such as blood, urine, and tissue, using specialized equipment and techniques. MLTs ensure that tests are accurate and reliable, which is crucial for patient care.
In addition to conducting tests, MLTs also maintain laboratory equipment and follow strict safety protocols. They often collaborate with other healthcare providers, including doctors and nurses, to interpret test results and contribute to patient management. Their work is essential in hospitals, clinics, and research facilities.
