| Code | Display | Definition |
| microbiology | Laboratory concerned with cultures, to look for suspected pathogens. | Laboratory concerned with cultures, to look for suspected pathogens. |
| parasitology | Laboratory responsible for examining samples and specimens for evidence of intestinal parasites such as tapeworms, hookworms, and others. | Laboratory responsible for examining samples and specimens for evidence of intestinal parasites such as tapeworms, hookworms, and others. |
| virology | Laboratory concerned with identification of viruses in specimens such as blood, urine, and cerebrospinal fluid. | Laboratory concerned with identification of viruses in specimens such as blood, urine, and cerebrospinal fluid. |
| hematology | Laboratory that works with whole blood to do full blood counts, and blood films as well as many other specialised tests. | Laboratory that works with whole blood to do full blood counts, and blood films as well as many other specialised tests. |
| biochemistry | Laboratory that usually receives serum or plasma and tests the serum for chemicals present in blood. | Laboratory that usually receives serum or plasma and tests the serum for chemicals present in blood. |
| toxicology | Laboratory that tests for toxins, pharmaceutical and recreational drugs in the blood. Urine and blood samples are submitted to this lab. | Laboratory that tests for toxins, pharmaceutical and recreational drugs in the blood. Urine and blood samples are submitted to this lab. |
| immunology | Immunology/Serology laboratory uses the concept of antigen-antibody interaction as a diagnostic tool. Compatibility of transplanted organs is also determined. | Immunology/Serology laboratory uses the concept of antigen-antibody interaction as a diagnostic tool. Compatibility of transplanted organs is also determined. |
| immunohematology | Laboratory or blood bank that determines blood groups, and performs compatibility testing on donor blood and recipients. It also prepares blood components, derivatives, and products for transfusion. | Laboratory or blood bank that determines blood groups, and performs compatibility testing on donor blood and recipients. It also prepares blood components, derivatives, and products for transfusion. |
| urinalysis | Laboratory tests urine for many analytes. Some health care providers have a urinalysis laboratory, while others don't. | Laboratory tests urine for many analytes. Some health care providers have a urinalysis laboratory, while others don't. |
| pathology | Surgical, cytopathology, or histopathology laboratory. Surgical pathology examines organs, limbs, tumors, fetuses, and other tissues biopsied in surgery such as breast mastectomies. | Surgical, cytopathology, or histopathology laboratory.

| genetics | Laboratory that mainly performs DNA analysis. | Laboratory that mainly performs DNA analysis. |
| cytogenetics | Laboratory that uses blood and other cells to get a karyotype. This can be helpful in prenatal diagnosis (e.g. Down's syndrome) as well as in cancer (some cancers have abnormal chromosomes). | Laboratory that uses blood and other cells to get a karyotype.
