Urological Associates has a dedicated state- of- the art medical laboratory which has been certified by The State of Alabama as a complex lab. The lab and the Certified Lab Technician who run it are routinely checked and certified to specific high standards to produce accurate and reproducible results.

The well trained and dedicated staff operates a variety of specialized equipment including a new Beckman Coulter Chemistry Analyzer which was purchased in 2006. Other equipment featured in the lab includes a Vitros DT-60 analyzer which performs renal profiles and a Phase Contrast Microscope that offers excellent treatment.

A special service offered by the lab is liquid nitrogen storage of semen provided by men undergoing chemotherapy or radiation treatment.

Lab personnel conduct thousands of tests each month to check serum levels of certain hormones, glucose, kidney function and they perform other tests depending on the needs of patients.

To ensure accurate and reproducible test results, the lab's machines are tested daily and results of some test such as PSA are computerized so any changes in values can be recognized quickly.
