The goal is to offer high-quality diagnostic services to the people of the country at an affordable price, reducing the need for patients to seek medical treatment abroad and spend their hard-earned foreign currency. This will be achieved by providing diagnostic services that meet international standards. Additionally, renowned General Practitioners, Consultants, and Professors in various medical fields will provide outpatient treatment. The focus is also on promoting health education and medical services. A day care center will be established to cater to follow-up care for cardiac, renal, and oncology patients. The long-term objective is to establish a fully equipped specialized hospital offering tertiary medical services. Furthermore, the plan includes the establishment of satellite collection centers.

Conjunctival Swab (Lt.) for AFB
A Conjunctival Swab (Lt.) for AFB (Acid-Fast Bacilli) is a diagnostic test used to detect the presence of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (the bacteria that causes tuberculosis) in the conjunctiva of the eye. In this test, a swab is taken from the left eye's conjunctival sac, which is the mucous membrane lining the eyelid and covering the white part of the eye. The sample is then stained using the Ziehl-Neelsen stain, which helps visualize acid-fast bacilli under the microscope. This test is typically performed when there is suspicion of ocular tuberculosis, which can cause eye inflammation, pain, and vision changes. It is especially useful in diagnosing TB when symptoms involve the eyes or if the patient has other risk factors for tuberculosis.Place for Ads
