description | Currently diagnosis and management of patients in Clinical Practice is very much dependent on laboratory diagnostics. Laboratory Medicine, like any other branch of Medicine, is therefore, mandated with ethical usage of materials and data obtained from patients. Several countries, professional societies and the have developed policies and guidance materials on ethical issues related to laboratory medicine.
