Clinical Immunology

The Immunology unit offers support to the various professionals from different medical specialities in the diagnosis, monitoring and progress of different diseases, including those of auto-immune, infectious, haemato-oncological, rheumatic and immunodeficiency origin. See markers in clinical immunology. Back to Clinical Analysis Laboratory page
