Laboratory Testing: Laboratory tests check a sample of your blood, urine, or body tissues. A technician or your doctor analyzes the test samples to see if your results fall within the normal range. The tests use a range because what is normal differs from person to person. Depending on the test, the presence, absence, or amount of an analyte may mean you do have a particular condition or it may mean that you do not have the particular condition.
Diseases like cancer have complex tissue morphology requiring microscopic examination. Typically this involves 2D examination through a microscope by a pathologist, a slow and manual pr...
