Medical Laboratory Technicians (MLT)
Medical Laboratory Technicians (MLT) are vital to the healthcare team as they
are often
the first to produce patient results. MLTs use sophisticated biomedical
instrumentation,
as well as manual procedures, to perform testing and provide results that are
essential
in the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of disease.
Performs a variety of clinical laboratory tests in the areas of hematology,
microbiology,
immunology, clinical chemistry, and urinalysis, as assigned; conducts
quantitative and
qualitative chemical analyses of body fluids such as blood, urine, and
spinal fluid;
performs blood counts using microscope.
Medical Technologists are the backbone of Medical Laboratories. Medical lab
technologies
use clinical laboratory tests to diagnose and treat disorders. These modern
technicians
and pathologists are extremely important to doctors for definitive
diagnosis.
This growth is due to the increasing demand for diagnostic services and the
need for
more trained personnel to perform these services. The profession is expected
to grow by
15% from 2014 to 2024, which is much faster than the average for all
occupations.
