Medical Laboratory Technician

What is a Medical Laboratory Technician?

Clinical laboratory testing plays a crucial role in the detection, diagnosis, and treatment of disease. Medical laboratory technicians are trained to work under the supervision of a technologist to conduct routine diagnostic tests, as well as set up, clean and maintain medical laboratory equipment. As a Medical Laboratory Technician you will be responsible to collect blood, tissue or other samples from patients; log patient samples and prepare them for testing. You will perform laboratory procedures such as preparing specimens for testing, and preparing culture media and stock solutions. Medical Laboratory Technicians use automated equipment and computerized instruments capable of performing a number of tests simultaneously, as well as microscopes, cell counters, and other sophisticated laboratory equipment. Technicians will then analyze the results and relay them to physicians.
