MLSC 4405U – Case Studies in Medical Laboratory Science


This terminal course in medical laboratory science examines the intricate relationship between patient pathophysiology and laboratory findings, emphasizing the critical role of medical laboratory science in clinical diagnosis and decision-making. Through case studies and evaluation of real-world scenarios, students will interpret various disease processes, analyzing how they manifest in patients compared to laboratory results. By integrating knowledge from key laboratory disciplines, the course fosters an understanding of discrepancies between clinical presentation and laboratory values, helping students refine their ability to interpret results with accuracy and confidence. Students will develop essential skills to identify abnormal findings, recognize potential errors, and contribute valuable insights to patient care and will also be provided an opportunity to complete a series of assessments that mimic the fields of practice examinations required to practice as medical laboratory technologists in Canada.
