Machine to diagnose hepatitis installed at NMC

NAWABSHAH: An ultra-modern machine that can diagnose Hepatitis-B and C has been installed at the Nawabshah Medical College, the college administration announced this on Sunday.

The machine working on Poly Rays Chromogin Reaction (CPCR) system is able to diagnose Hepatitis-B and C and can also tell if one is suffering from tuberculosis or even malaria, the medical college sources said.

Pathologist Dr Qaiser Naqvi said this type of a modern machine was not present in any other government or private hospital in the province, including Karachi, except for the one installed in a large Karachi-based private hospital but that was also not comparable to the machine installed in the NMC. He said that CPRC System machine would provide the latest test results as compared to collection points?results.read more
