CHOP-Labcorp Metabolic and Advanced Diagnostics Laboratory Tests
Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) and Labcorp have joined forces to enhance pediatric diagnostic services by expanding access to novel metabolic and advanced diagnostic tests. This collaboration aims to address national gaps in pediatric diagnostics, reduce barriers to test completion for pediatric patients across the county, offer patients expanded access to novel pediatric diagnostics, and provide clinicians with precise results to improve pediatric patient care.
Metabolic and advanced diagnostic testing at CHOP is performed in the Metabolic and Advanced Diagnostics Laboratory, a CLIA-certified, CAP-accredited laboratory. View our licenses and accreditations.
Our Metabolic and Advanced Diagnostics Laboratory supports clinicians by providing accurate results they need to guide diagnosis, personalize treatment and improve outcomes for pediatric patients.
