Multispecialty & Research Hospital (MSRH) UT Health San Antonio Clinical Lab and Cytology Laboratory

UT Health SA Clinical Laboratory: The UT Health San Antonio Clinical Laboratory began services in 1974 as the laboratory for the UT Health San Antonio MD Anderson Cancer Center, formerly Cancer Therapy and Research Center. In March 2017, the Clinical Laboratory expanded its clinical and research services and became the primary laboratory for all UT Health Physicians. This network now includes providing laboratory services for UT Health San Antonio MD Anderson Cancer Center Mays Cancer Center, Medical Arts and Research Center, and all UT Health Physicians Primary Care locations. The UT Health San Antonio Clinical Laboratory is an integral part of patient care, academia, and research within the UT Health San Antonio system.

Cytology Laboratory: Cytology (also known as Cytopathology) involves examining cells on a microscopic level from bodily tissues or fluids to determine a diagnosis. Our Cytology Laboratory offers the Thin Prep Pap Test. Ancillary tests such as HPV and Chlamydia trachomatis and Neisseria gonorrhoeae, when ordered,  can be performed on an aliquot from the Thin Prep Pap specimen vial; this testing is performed in our Molecular Diagnostic Laboratory.
