Aim & Scope

Aim

The Journal of Medical Laboratory Science & Diagnostics (JMLSD) aims to publish high-quality, peer-reviewed research that advances the understanding, innovation, and application of laboratory science in clinical diagnostics, biomedical testing, and healthcare decision-making.

The journal also welcomes interdisciplinary submissions from Allied Health Sciences including Physiotherapy, Optometry, Radiology, Dialysis Technology, and Nutrition & Dietetics, provided the work demonstrates clear diagnostic, laboratory, imaging, or analytical relevance.
